[comp.sys.mac.misc] DeskWriter and OzTeX, DVIM72-Mac

wchang@qin.Berkeley.EDU (05/08/91)

I downloaded OzTeX and DVIM72-Mac (took all night :-) and gave them a try.

They work.  (Thanks!)

But I encountered the following major and minor problems:

  Text is compressed horizontally, so some vertical letter strokes are 
  one pixel wide while most are two.  
  
I think this may be DeskWriter's fault, because I have had the exact same
problem with Textures.  I tried dvi output from both OzTeX and Textures
(DVItool DA), same result.  On the other hand, the bitmaps appear to be
perfect when seen through the Preview 2.0 driver.

  How should I resize the page preview window in DVIM72-Mac, for best result?  
  I would like to use SteppingOut, and have ResEdit, but don't know what
  coordinates to use.
	       
I'm running an SE30 with 4meg; DeskWriter driver 2.1.  Thanks in advance!
