     I'd like to mix font families using troff and Adobe's pscat for my 
Apple LaserWriter.  For instance I'd like to be able to say:

This is \fHHelvetica\fR.  This is \f(HIHelvetica Italic\fR.

The 'This is' would be in Times-Roman and the other parts would be in the
Helvetica font families.  The problem is that both troff and pscat require
you to supply font descriptions and it appears I can only supply the
description for one family at a time.  Any help would be appreciated.
