Because of the very nature +of Baskerville, being written by the {\TeX}perts, and pushing {\TeX} to its +limits, it is not the simplest publication to handle. Now we all like to do +things in the most elegant way possible but, having run a production +environment for a few years, we have learned to use the quick and dirty +method when it works. I thought some notes on the production of this issue +might be of interest. + +The work was done using Textures on a Power Computing Macintosh clone. The +initial problem came from (of all places) fonts. Textures uses a system of +font management different to other machines (in itself no bad thing). A +version of the Baskerville class file had to be chosen from the several that +were offered/located (actually a \verb|diff| was performed on them and the most +likely looking candiates were pinched into one big, mutated, class file---it +worked, so who are we to complain). Things went smoothly until Seb's +MetaPost article where the use of \verb|%*Font|, dvips specific, commands meant +that the \verb|.eps| files needed to be modified to run under Textures. The +following lines where added. (This is not a general solution and can be +quite dangerous, but it was quick.) +\begin{verbatim} +/cmsy10 /CMSY10 def +/cmr10 /CMR10 def +/cmmi10 /CMMI10 def +/fshow {exch findfont exch scalefont setfont + show}bind def +\end{verbatim} +What it does is to make the text \verb|cmr10|, etc active (so no phrases like +`this figure uses cmr10' are allowed) and defines the \verb|fshow| command. +Unfortunately you must have access to \emph{all} the fonts locally on your +machine as they aren't embedded into the PostScript. Obviously we could have +run MetaPost on the original source codes, but adding a \verb|prologues := 1;| +command of course, but as both methods require us to change all the files +and the latter requires an extra processing step from {\MP} so the first +method was deemed acceptable. + +Good luck to the next editor! + \end{frontmatter} + +\Dings + + \input{lout} + +\Dings + + \input{dtd} + +\Dings + + \input{ltour3} + +\Dings + + \def\textdegree{$^{\circ}$} + \input{rahtz} + +% \input{lyx-intro} +% \input{lyx} + +\Dings + + \input{regul} +\end{document}
