Is there anyone on this list who could comment on the feasibility and advisability of making the MusiXTeX fonts truly scalable? At what points in the curret scheme (pmx => MusiXTeX => TeX => dvips or dvi2scr) would changes be needed? I don't know enough about either ATM or True-Type to say anything intelligent here, but it seems to me that there would be at least two advantages: 1. Avoid the need to generate a new set of pixel fonts with every font-size change. 2. Make it possible to generate decent-looking PDF files. Whenever I do this now, the bit-mapped fonts come out looking really crappy when viewed on screen (yes, they still look OK when printed). --Don Simons
