>Newsgroups: comp.sources.misc >Posting-number: Volume 7, Issue 115 >Submitted-by: jim@hoptoad.UUCP (Jim Joyce) >Archive-name: sendmail.ms I looked forward to having this but it seemed to be more difficult than nesssary to print it out. I don't mind having to tape the thing together and then copy it. I did mind having to change all the \fH's, \f(HI's, \f(HB's to fonts I have. It's even more annoying that Jim started out doing it right by putting: .fp 1 H .fp 2 HI .fp 3 HB at the top of the file. After that he should have changed fonts with \f1, \f2, \f3. I would only have had to change the .fp lines rather than 75-100 or so specific font changes. It would be nice if I had all the fonts everyone else has but I don't. (the .ft lines are the same story). Other than that little annoyance, it looks good so far. I'm still a sendmail novice and things like this can help a lot. Thanks Jim.

Somewhere in the file Jim mentioned eroff -- I just got a brochure from Elan which makes eroff, and those fonts map as follows: H - Helvetica HI - Helvetica Oblique HB - Helvetica-Bold aem a.e.mossberg - aem@mthvax.cs.miami.edu/aem@umiami.BITNET - Pahayokee Bioregion Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people. - John Adams
