MetaPost output doesn't show here (teTeX-20021116, debian-woody PC) the
current date/time, but the date/time of teTeX build. Also not in the
%CreationDate comment, Is this ok? An example:
beginfig(1)
label(decimal(day) & decimal(month) & decimal(year), (100mm,150mm));
endfig; end
This gives still
There is a free christmas font Chrimbobat (www.fontmonster.co.uk). After
making a myfonts.map file, the font could be included into TeX text, e.
g. by \font \chrim chrimbob at 100pt \chrim m \bye and displayed (even
zoomed into) with xdvi.
But dvips fails:
This is dvips(k) 5.92a Copyright 2002 Ra
This is parameter T1_BUF_SIZE = 8192 in writet1.c, in the dvipsk and
pdftexdir directories. It is hardcoded by #define. Used both by dvips
and pdftex. Increasing it to 16384 in the source allows inclusion of the
christmas font.
