What tips could be provided for an environment running FrameMaker and TransScript on Sun machines with regards to adding additional fonts for printing via FM, nroff, etc.? Where should I start reading on this subject? Thanks! -- Larry W.

If you're referring to adding fonts for ditroff via Transcript, you should consult the man page font(5), which tells you how to build width tables, and there should be some documentation for the makedev utility which you may need to convert the width tables to the binary format needed by most versions of ditroff. I'm not sure whether there's any point in changing the font that nroff uses, because nroff assumes that the font is constant width, and most of them aren't. I have no info about FM. -- Chris Lewis, Phone: (613) 832-0541, Domain: clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca UUCP: ...!cunews!latour!ecicrl!clewis; Ferret Mailing List: ferret-request@eci386; Psroff (not Adobe Transcript) enquiries: psroff-request@eci386 or Canada 416-832-0541.
