[comp.text.tex] Help Printing local manual

aspgpas@cidsv01.cid.aes.doe.CA (Peter Silva) (02/14/91)

I got TeX fonts from the neat.cs.toronto.ca  ftp archive... 
and TeX from the UofT distrib. as well.

I've gotten TeX built, but I don't know if it works, and I can't print the
local manual.   latex seems to build the dvi file properly, but there
are problems in dvi2ps:

prtex -Pxxx -postscript -reset 4 local

GetFontDefs(): Unresolvable fonts looking for .pk, .pdr files


There are cmcsc10.300pk and cmcsc10.tfm  files in the font directory, but
it seems to want more.  I think I have to generate some font files somehow...
I suppose one uses MetaFont for this,  could some kind soul proffer a recipe?
Failing that, is there an FTP site I could get this stuff from?


I'm a humble, documentless beginner.
