[comp.text.tex] newgen printer parameters?

grunwald@foobar.colorado.edu (Dirk Grunwald) (02/24/90)

we have a modified ``newgen turbo ps'' printer that prints 800x400 dpi.

I would like to generate fonts for it. I used existing 300dpi fonts &
postscript scales those nicely (using rokickis dvips), but they're a
little jaggy. I was going to generate 800dpi fonts and have postscript
shrink them. I figured this was easier than hacking dvips to handle
non-1 aspect-ratio fonts.

So, has anyone done this? How did it look? Got a modedef?
