+<h3>Warning: "Font shape ... not available"</h3>
+<p>LaTeX'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'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 &lt;11.5&gt; not available
+(Font)              size &lt;12&gt; 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 &lt;10&gt; 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.
