Thanks so much to Takanori Uchiyama for making the Type 1 versions
available. We've been talking about this for quite some time.
I have to be honest and report that getting them installed and printing
has not been easy or straightforward, and I still can't get it all done
under Windows98. The procedure I have than works OK for making a pdf is
Linux (tetex) dvips => Win98 Acrobat Distiller
I simply could not figure out how to get Acrobat to handle the Type 1's
when I made the .ps in a DOS window with emtex's dvips. Perhaps dvips
(emtex) wasn't embedding the fonts properly. But I chose to look into
Linux rather than hash out the Windows problems on list, knowing that
not so many others use Windows.
Now the real reason for this post is to point out what seems to be a
purely Linux problem: I also succeeded in making a pdf directly with
dvipdfm. The printed output was OK except for the horizontal beams.
Every one protruded beyond the stem where it should have stopped. I'm
guessing the horizontal beams are drawn in postscript, while the slanted
ones are fonts. It looks like dvipdfm is extending the lines that make
up the beams with a semicircle whose diameter equals the line width. So
the questions are: Has anyone else noticed this? Are there any options
that could fix it? Or is this just a feature of the way dvipdfm draws
lines and/or solid boxes? (I haven't yet loaded the new versions of the
fonts, but I don't think they would affect this).
