I have a TeX document which is magnified \magstep1. Later in
the document I have some text in the cmr8 font. Within that
cmr8 font I have some math mode stuff --- but it comes out in
12 point size! (cmi10 scaled \magstep1)
Zounds! I've tried everything, even Knuth's own suggestion
(TeXbook p153, bottom displayed example:
$\textfont0=tenrm 9 \hbox{$9\textfont0=\Helvetica$}$
but this doesn't work for me.
Here's what I want to do:
-----------------------------------------
\magnification=\magstep1
Here is some text.
\font\rme = \cmr8
{\rme
Here is some eight point text with math: $E = mc^2$ }
------------------------------------------
where "E=mc^2" comes out in eight point math characters.
Much obliged for any/all suggestions.
