 We are thinking about using a Linotronic at a commerical organization. One
of the packages we want to use with it is TeX. The Linotronic does postscript.
I do have a dvi2ps program, however to use all TeX's math fonts it is 
necessary to use CM bitmapped fonts, because postscript does not support all
TeX's math characters. The problem is that the bitmapped fonts for the
Lintronic have to be made at 1270 dpi. For cmr10 at 10pt this translates
into a pxl file of 165k, cmr12 is 225k. In short when using these fonts
the postscript file created can be quite large. The kicker here is that
we maybe transfering the file over a 2400 baud modem.

Possible ways to get around this are:

 1. Hand carry the postscript files
 2. Give postscript versions of the CM bitmap files to the typesetter.
      (Any know if this is possible? How do you use them in dvi2ps?)
 3. Use only postscript fonts (what about math?)

Anyone have any ideas, has anyone done this?

thanks
