The first things that needed attention were the fonts in the pk300 directory. These are symbolic links to files in subdirectories named '*pt' (like '10pt'), but they all referred to path a path of the form /7959/usr/local/lib/tex/fonts/pk300/*pt. (Might be misremembering the number.) It was necessary to redo all of these symbolic links. I'm trying the latest xdvi from expo.lcs.mit.edu, and it looks good except for sometimes blowing up with a floating point exception, possibly on graphic special functions. Which program(s) do people use for printing .dvi files? (We have 2 different lpr programs plus lp, and the first try at printing a dvi file flopped. Will try a bit later to generate iptex...) ---------------- Paul Raveling Raveling@isi.edu
