[comp.fonts] TeX fonts on Xerox 4050/90 printers and PostScript

goossens@cernvax.cern.ch (michel goossens) (04/17/91)

Does anybody have some experience with generating TeX fonts for Xerox 4050/4090
printers. We are actually using PostScript output from e.g. dvips, which we 
translate into a IMG bitmap for printing on a Xerox 4050/90. Althought the fonts
look OK on an Apple Laserwriter (which is, it seems, a write black engine) the fonts
come out too faint on the Xerox printers. As we are using the same input file, namely
the PostScript file, I guess we have to generate our 800+ fonts once more for
that printer. Does somebody have the correct Metafont settings for those devices?

Sincere thanks,
