[comp.text.tex] OzTeX and Slitex

lhume@spam.ua.oz.au (Leigh Hume) (07/08/90)

Has anyone been able to get SliteX to work fully within OZTex? By this I 
mean using the CMR and ilcm type fonts. I've had partial success in that
ordinary text is set correctly but if I attempt to create overlays or 
different colours the spacings on the different sheets fails and virtually
no gap is left for the overlaid text.

Don Hosek at ymir.claremont.edu suggested the problem may lie in the 
previewer and printer drivers. Can anyone confirm this? I had some
trouble creating a pk version of one font of the ilcmxx type fonts 
when the macmetafont version of gftopk choked badly and hung the mac.
I don't think the font is the problem as the gftype or pktype "seem" to 
be happy and give reasonable output.

Any help or reports of experience would be much appreciated. It's the
overlays tricks I am most interested in.
