I am writing a long scientific text, with a lots of formulas, using TeX and a macintosh. I would like to use postscript fonts instead of cmr fonts. So I am looking for a font family which includes roman italic SLANTED bold and TeX-compatible math symbols. I know similar questions pop up every now and then, so I am sorry if this is not an original question. Where can on buy (and at what price) and/or where can one ftp such postscript fonts? What fontfamilies are available ? If there is interest, I'll post a summary to the net. Thank you in advance, Christoph Schiller schiller@src.sony.co.jp

Change /Times-Roman findfont 12 scalefont setfont to /Times-Roman findfont 12 scalefont [1 0 .3 1 0 0] makefont setfont (you might want to play with the .3, I did it by eye in psh...) This will give you a slanted version of Times Roman... Lee -- Liam Russell Quin, SoftQuad Inc., Toronto... 416 963 8337... lee@sq.com `What one person finds valuable others do not even notice.
