From: Pavel.pa@Xerox.ARPA After seeing several requests for either the DVI file for the GNU Emacs manual or a version of TeX which can run it off, I have decided to make the former available. Two versions of the manual are available via anonymous FTP from PARC-VAXC.ARPA: pub/gnuemacs.dvi standard DVI-format output (725772 bytes) pub/gnuemacs.press Xerox Press-format output (945152 bytes) These copies of the manual use different fonts than those referred to in the distributed version of botex.tex, in order to make it easier to run off for sites using more recent fonts. Here are the fonts referred to in the files: amr9 (unscaled) amr10 (unscaled) amr10 scaled \magstephalf ambx10 scaled \magstephalf ambx10 scaled \magstep2 ambx10 scaled \magstep3 ambx10 scaled \magstep5 amsl10 scaled \magstephalf amss10 scaled \magstephalf amsy10 (unscaled) amtt10 scaled \magstephalf If you do take a copy of the manual from PARC-VAXC, I'd appreciate it if you would drop me a line, just so I can get a feeling for how many copies are being taken.

It has occurred to me that I left in the \hoffset=1in and \voffset=1in that were in the botex.tex macros. What this amounts to in practice is that the output will be shifted down and right by one inch on some printers (the ones that work correctly, I think). On others, like the ``losing Imagen'' mentioned in the macros, it will come out alright. If I get time, I will put out another copy of each of the Press and DVI files with the offsets set back to zero. I'll let the net.emacs list know when I do this. Both versions will be made available. Sorry for the confusion. Pavel
