I'm a TeX user who would like to make nice looking presentation slides.
Alas, our distribution does not include .pxl files for sans serif,
Helvetica, or other suitable fonts in sizes larger than 14 points.
Something like the cmss17 and cmssi17 at standard plus \magstep1 and
\magstep2 magnifications would be nice.  Can these be obtained from
Stanford?  Has anyone actually COMPILED new fonts with .tfm and .pxl
files for viewgraphs?  I'd like to hear from you.

Thanks.
