Hello

i'm building TeX from the scratch, and i will use TeX only in
combination with xdvi for previewing and dvips for printing.
xdvi takes for default 300dpi fonts and shrunks by 3 for displaying.
my question is now:

would it be better to create 100dpi and 70dpi fonts for xdvi
and with shrunking-factor of 1, and are there mode-def's for
mf for 100dpi and 70dpi Screens, especially Sony's?

thanks for any hints

Charly
