I need help using the cyrillic fonts. I need to format something in
Ukrainian, but it doesn't work (see below -- what is the "new font
selection scheme?"). We don't have any serious TeX users here, just
novices, and I am not even one of those yet.
What I would really like is a sample document using a cyrillic font in
which I could delete the text and put in my own. I promise someday I
will learn to use TeX if you help me.
Thanks in advance,
Lydia Gregoret

P.S. we got the fonts and stlye file rmacro.sty from ymir.claremont.edu
----------------
Here is my test file (tmp.tex):
\documentstyle[rmacro]{article}
\begin{document}

\end{document}

(Also you need the few special Ukrainian letters, including even the hard g (g with upturn), all of which are in WNCYR, but I'm not sure of rmacro.sty on ymir has the control sequences for the non-Russian letters. You can easily define them, though.) Dimitri Vulis CUNY GC Math DLV@CUNYVMS1.BITNET DLV@CUNYVMS1.GC.CUNY.EDU
