I have a question to ask concerning the NFSS dealing with PSFonts.
I apologise if it's been asked before, or if its just plain dumb.


The NFSS selects fonts via
	family, shape, series ( and if required size ).
PSFonts selection is via
	family, weight, variant and expansion.

Is is an imcompatibility?  Is there any way to "automatically" select
a psfont using teh family, shape etc., commands of the NFSS.  Or do
we have to explicitly tell TeX the name of the font?

You're thoughts will be appreciated

John. R
