I have been trying to figure out a way to get lots of fonts (more
than four) in a single troff document.  My environment is running
various *troffs (troff, dvitroff, ditroff) on sun workstations, with
a LaserWriter as an output device.  The LaserWriter has Times Roman,
Helvetica, and Courier fonts, some or all of which (but more than
four at a time!) I would like to use.  Is there a troff expert out
there who can help with this?

(Please forgive my ignorance, I don't normally use troff.
Circumstances force me to do so.)

cheers,

txr
