The subject really says it all. Does anyone know where I could get my hands on a version of 'iptex' or 'dviimp' that appreciates PK-format fonts? This would be for SunOS 3.5 and SunOS 4.0. Anonymous ftp would be preferred. (I've tried labrea.stanford.edu, sun.soe.clarkson.edu, and june.cs.washington.edu without any success.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Christopher Rabson McGill University Programmer/Technician School of Computer Science E-mail: albion@milo.cs.mcgill.ca Montreal, Quebec albion@musocs.uucp CANADA
