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

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.

Sincerely,
Tom Bryan

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.
