texmf.cnf

2000-03-02 Thread Matthias Schweinoch

Hi,

we're using tetex 1.0.9 on a Solaris 2.6 OS. One of the users wishes to modify 
the value of the TEXMFCNF variable, to import his own texmf.cnf file.

Apparently this worked in tetex 0.9pre, but with 1.0.9 he has the following 
problems:

bash% export TEXMFCNF=`kpsewhich  texmf.cnf`; latex Mue11
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1)
---! Must increase the trie size
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)

If someone knows a solution, let me hear it, please:-)

Cheers,

Matthias

Hey, where did you get this? I don't know anything of a 1.0.9 version.

 the value of the TEXMFCNF variable, to import his own texmf.cnf file.

Set TEXMFCNF to the *directory* that the texmf.cnf file is in, not to
the file itself.

Sounds like the sizes in his texmf.cnf are incompatible with the sizes
with which the format file has been generated.  He will most probably
need to generate his own format files to go with his texmf.cnf
settings, or adapt a few changed settings from the newly changed 1.0.9
texmf.cnf file.  It might also be that some missing sizes are making
tex give up.

Correct use of gftodvi?

2000-03-02 Thread Pavel Janik ml.

Hello,

my diploma work is about digital font formats and I'm using latest
tetex-beta. I'd like to generate .dvi from cmr10.mf:

mf cmr10  # ok, I have cmr10.2602gf
gftodvi cmr10.2602gf  # ok, dvi file created
dvips cmr10

Is gray.mf supposed to behave in this way? I've fixed this issue by simple
removing appropriate test in graycx, but what is the correct solution?
