Questions abound: \BB How do you get +\TeX\ metric files for the fonts in your printer? \BB When you buy +fonts, what are all those {\tt .pfb}, {\tt .pfm} and {\tt .afm} files? +\BB How does the {\tt dvi} driver distinguish between \MF\ fonts and +PostScript fonts?\BB How do you change your whole document so that it is +typeset in Univers? How do you use a PostScript phototypesetter? \BB What +font families go together? \BB Which text fonts work with which maths +fonts? There {\em are} answers, and you can get them at this meeting. + +The speakers will include the following: +\begin{description} +\item[Alan Jeffrey] will discuss the building blocks for successful +use of PostScript fonts --- the conversion of Adobe Font Metric files, +encoding schemes, communicating with the {\tt dvi} driver etc; +\item[Sebastian Rahtz] will deal with the \LaTeX\ way of setting up +and selecting new fonts; this will primarily be concerned with the +tools provided in the new \LaTeXe\ (an enhanced version of the New +Font Selection Scheme 2); +\item[Will Shaman] will describe how to choose an appropriate +PostScript typeface for a particular job, and the principles to be +followed in mixing fonts from different families. +\end{description} +There will be an opportunity to put questions to each of the speakers, +and also a panel session to consider wider issues, including the +choice and use of mathematical fonts. Questions for the +panel will be solicited widely, including via {\tt uktex}. A digest of +these questions and answers will be published in \BV, +the organ of the group. + +\section*{Meeting Details} +The meeting will be held in the Department for Continuing Education, +Rewley~House, Wellington Square, Oxford. +Wellington Square is about 5 minutes walk from the bus station and some +10--15 minutes walk from the railway station: the best route is via +Beaumont~Street. Those driving to Oxford are advised to use the +park-and-ride service, as there is {\it no} parking in central Oxford. + +The meeting will begin at 11.00, with registration and coffee from +10.30 onwards; there will be breaks for lunch and tea, and it is +expected to finish at around 17.00. There will be a charge for the +meeting of \pounds 20 for members of the \ukt, and \pounds 30 for +non-members. A booking form is included. Please indicate any special +dietary requirements when booking a place. + +% +\section*{Further Information} +Queries concerning the meeting may be addressed to the program organizer: +$$\vbox{\halign{#\hfil&\hskip50pt#\hfil&\quad#\hfil\cr +Alan Jeffrey \cr +School of Cognitive \& Computing Science \cr +Sussex University \cr +Brighton &Janet:&{\tt alanj@uk.ac.susx.cogs}\cr +BN1 9QH &Tel:&0273 606755 ext.~3238 \cr +}}$$ +\egroup +\newpage +\bgroup +\large +\begin{center}\LARGE\bf +The \UKTUG\bigskip + +{\Huge Choosing and Using PostScript Fonts}\\ +Oxford, 19th January 1994\bigskip + +{\Huge Booking Form\bigskip} +\end{center} +% +\section*{Booking Arrangements} +For members of the \ukt , there is be a charge of \pounds 20, +which includes coffee, lunch and tea.
