[comp.text.tex] Bits & Pieces

  Hmmm..this never ceases to be intriguing.
  I've got all the fonts built, and things are printing out (after
 playing with the drivers & using dvijep); only snag is, the roman
 fonts are all bad (well, for the most part). 'i', 'f', 'l', and a few
 others are showing up bad (I've gotten the cmr's from another site &
 tried them, and the same results). Sometimes things screw up (like in
 The Short Story, 'time' and 'galaxy' are munged; but if I insert a
 word, say 'long', in front of time, it comes out ok, but then other
 words are messed up).
  The math symbols are coming out ok, and the cmbx* fonts are all
 fine; some of the cmti's are also munged.
  Is there *anyone* out there that's using TeX with an HP LaserJet III
 that doesn't have PostScript? The last date on the dvijep stuff is in
 1989, which leads me to believe somewhere there must be an update (or
 a better program). Does a Unix version of the dvihp program exist?
  (One of our professors uses TeX regularly on his PC & said he uses
 that to print the dvi's out.)

  Thanks for your time. Mebbe soon I'll actually start to get to learn
 TeX itself, eh? ;-)
