-<h3>Warning: &#8220;Font shape &#8230; not available&#8221;</h3>
-<p/>LaTeX&#8217;s font selection scheme maintains tables of the font families
-it has been told about. These tables list the font families that
-LaTeX knows about, and the shapes and series in which those font
-families are available. In addition, in some cases, the tables list
-the sizes at which LaTeX is willing to load fonts from the family.
-<p/>When you specify a font, using one of the LaTeX font selection
-commands, LaTeX looks for the font (that is, a font that matches
-the encoding, family, shape, series and size that you want) in its
-tables. If the font isn&#8217;t there at the size you want, you will see a
-message like:
-
-<pre>
-LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `OT1/cmr/m/n' in size &#60;11.5&#62; not available
-(Font) size &#60;12&#62; substituted on input line ...
-</pre>
-There will also be a warning like:
-
-<pre>
-LaTeX Font Warning: Size substitutions with differences
-(Font) up to 0.5pt have occurred.
-</pre>
-after LaTeX has encountered <code>\</code><code>end{document}</code>.
-<p/>The message tells you that you&#8217;ve chosen a font size that is not in
-LaTeX&#8217;s list of &#8220;allowed&#8221; sizes for this font; LaTeX has
-chosen the nearest font size it knows is allowed. In fact, you can
-tell LaTeX to allow <em>any</em> size: the restrictions come from the
-days when only bitmap fonts were available, and they have never
-applied to fonts that come in scaleable form in the first place.
-Nowadays, most of the fonts that were once bitmap-only are also
-available in scaleable (Adobe Type 1) form. If your installation uses
-scaleable versions of the Computer Modern or European Computer Modern
-(EC) fonts, you can tell LaTeX to remove the restrictions;
-use the <i>type1cm</i> or <i>type1ec</i> package as appropriate.
-<p/>If the combination of font shape and series isn&#8217;t available, LaTeX
-will usually have been told of a fall-back combination that may be
-used, and will select that:
-
-<pre>
-LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `OT1/cmr/bx/sc' undefined
-(Font) using `OT1/cmr/bx/n' instead on input line 0.
-</pre>
-<p/>Substitutions may also be &#8220;silent&#8221;; in this case, there is no more
-than an &#8220;information&#8221; message in the log file. For example, if you
-specify an encoding for which there is no version in the current font
-family, the &#8216;default family for the encoding&#8217; is selected. This
-happens, for example, if you use command <code>\</code><code>textbullet</code>, which is
-normally taken from the maths symbols font, which is in <code>OMS</code>
-encoding. My test log contained:
-
-<pre>
-LaTeX Font Info: Font shape `OMS/cmr/m/n' in size &#60;10&#62; not available
-(Font) Font shape `OMS/cmsy/m/n' tried instead on input line ...
-</pre>
-<p/>In summary, these messages are not so much error messages, as
-information messages, that tell you what LaTeX has made of your
-text. You should check what the messages say, but you will ordinarily
-not be surprised at their content.
