If you would like a font to be at a size of 1000, would I have to compile the
font at "1000", or could I compile the font at the normal heigth and believe
the LaTeX/TeX compiler will automatically scale the font? This is the same for
.pk files. Do I have to compile, for example, METAFONTS at the desired
magnification, and then convert to .pk? And when I'm using the dvi driver to
print, do the fonts to be used in the file have to be listed in the command
line of the dvidrv program? This would seem to be a pain, wouldn't it be
appropriate for the .dvi file that is being loaded by dvidrv to automatically
call up each .pk file it needs to use? (same thing when using .tfm font
metrics when compiling .tex files --> .dvi).
Thanks
