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’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 <11.5> not available -(Font) size <12> 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’ve chosen a font size that is not in -LaTeX’s list of “allowed” 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’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 “silent”; in this case, there is no more -than an “information” message in the log file. For example, if you -specify an encoding for which there is no version in the current font -family, the ‘default family for the encoding’ 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 <10> 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. -<dl> -<dt><tt><i>type1cm.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/type1cm.zip">macros/latex/contrib/type1cm</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/type1cm.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/type1cm/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>type1ec.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/ps-type1/cm-super/type1ec.sty">fonts/ps-type1/cm-super/type1ec.sty</a> -</dl> -<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=fontunavail">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=fontunavail</a> -</body> |
