A new TeX (Version 3.14t3) was installed here early this year
which gives a LaTeX  Version 2.09 (dated 14 Jan 1991).

I understood that this gave the NFSS system automatically but
all my attempts to get easy operation of \large, \Large and \LARGE with
\sf and \bf fail and I now presume we do not actually have NFSS running.
What I am after is text in several larger than normal bold sans serif
sizes interspersed with same size cmr maths fonts for seminar slides.

How do I check whether we have it or not and if NOT where do I suggest
the Administrator look for Installation Instructions presuming the
files are in the distribution we have?
