Does anybody know where I might find TeX fonts in which capital
letters are in "outline" form? E.g., a capital B would appear
as follows:
____
| __ \ (Sorry about the crude ASCII line drawing,
||__|| but the "B" would appear as a solid white
| __ < letter, surrounded by a black outline.)
||__||
|____/
Note that AMS \Bbb "Blackboard bold" fonts won't do the trick.
Any information would be appreciated.

I believe that this version includes some minor fixes that I made when he originally sent me the files (for write-white printers and printing source with MFT). -dh --- Don Hosek To retrieve files from ymir via the | dhosek@ymir.claremont.edu mailserver, send a message to | Quixote TeX Consulting mailserv@ymir.claremont.edu with a | 714-625-0147 line saying send [DIRECTORY]FILENAME where DIRECTORY is the FTP directory (sans "anonymous") and FILENAME is the filename, e.g. "send [tex]00readme.txt". There is a list of files in each directory under the name 00files.txt Binary files are not available by this technique.
