[comp.text] ptroff multi-fonts

paulb@ttidca.TTI.COM (Paul Blumstein) (02/07/89)

I currently write with troff and print on a Laserwriter with ptroff.
Is there any way to switch fonts in the same document? (E.g., Roman
to Helvetica).

I realize that I could use .fp commands to change the mounting of
ponts on any one or more of the 4 positions that I have available,
but that wouldn't change the Font Family that used by pscat or troff.

Thanks, in advance, for any advice.  (Except cutting & pasting paper--
I already can do that!)
