(Well, with groff, I don't need the TeX-dvips > line, I can generate PS, but with gs's fonts they are not so nice.) Well, you will have to get some genuine Adobe/whoever fonts.

If you get some true PS fonts, I wish you good luck finding AFM files in order to generate tfm files needed for tex. /Marino > > -- > Gabor Zahemszky > > -:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:- > Earth is the cradle of human sense, but you can't stay in the cradle forever. > Tsiolkovsky >
