This is true, but TeX can't set math with them... For an idea of all the problems you have to deal with, when you want to interface TeX to a typesetter, using the standard fonts of the typesetter, one should consult the article of Han Noot (mcvax!han) in Tugboat. It appeared around a two years ago. The same problems apply of course to WYSIWYG systems. If I have a nice typesetter around, how easy is it to the system to the device? Also, since you only get what you see, it would be very difficult to do things like the stereo picture made by Bentley[1]. jaap [1] Brian W.
