+
+If you have psfonts, then a simple way to use helvetica is to use the
+style file helv.sty:
+- ---cut---
+% latex style with helvetica text.
+\def\@mrm{phvr}% Helvetica - roman
+\def\@mit{phvro}% Helvetica -oblique
+\def\@msl{phvbo}% Helvetica - bold - oblique
+\def\@mbf{phvb}% Helvetica - bold
+\def\@mcsc{phvrc}% Helvetica - small caps
+\def\@mtt{pcrr}% courier
+\def\@mss{phvr}% helvetica
+\input psfonts.sty
+- ---cut---

+Subject: wysiwyg
+
+Dear fellow TeXers,
+
+I am having a paper in the mill at Academic Press in the UK, and they only
+do wysiwyg programs like word, yuk! My manuscript is in LaTeX both on Unix
+and on a Mac under Textures. Does anybody know of a way to export the text
+to wysiwyg programs? It wouldn't be a problem if the formatting
+information got lost as long as the text came across. (Excalibur has a
+parser that throws out the LaTeX/TeX commands...)
+
+The opposite way apparently works, but I haven't seen TeX --> wysiwyg,
+yet. Well, if not, the Academic Press folks may have to digest the LaTeX
+files or retype it (in which case I get to find all the typos...) I sure
+wish they could handle something more professional than "Word"...
+
+Best regards from Lawn Guyland in the strange State of New York -->

+Subject: METAFONT for Macintosh?
+
+Has anyone had success in running METAFONT on a Macintosh?
+
+I have a Macintosh PowerBook 5300c, system 7.5.
+I am using the public domain METAFONT version 0.66 from the
+Bluesky ftp site, and it is not fully operational.
+Is there a better METAFONT for Macintosh available?
+
+Once the MF file is written, how does one install a font on the
+Macintosh so that Bluesky's Textures can display the font on the
+screen and print?
+
+Has anyone had success getting "penlabels" to work?
+
+Does anyone know how to produce output with grid lines and
+penlabels like those in Donald Knuth's "Computer Modern
+Typefaces, Computers & Typesetting volume E"?
+
+For some reason, I have not received a TeXhax digest in a while
+even though I am still on the list, so please reply directly to
+me in addition to posting to the list.

+Chancellor Group, Inc. (symbol CHAG) just reported big quarterly earnings.
+SGA Goldstar issued a "buy" recommendation. I understand other investment
+advisors are looking to recommend CHAG. The company has a strong book value.
+The short sellers need to cover. This looks like a good situation to me.
