<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label 8000</title>
</head><body>
<h3>Mismatched mode ljfour and resolution 8000</h3>
<p/>You’re running <i>dvips</i>, and you encounter a stream of error
messages, starting with “<code>Mismatched mode</code>”. The mode is the
default used in your installation — it’s set in the <i>dvips</i>
configuration file, and <code>ljfour</code> is commonest (since it’s the
default in most distributions), but not invariable.
<p/>The problem is that <i>dvips</i> has encountered a font for which
it must generate a bitmap (since it can’t find it in Type 1 format),
and there is no proforma available to provide instructions to give to
Metafont.
<p/>So what to do? The number 8000 comes from the ‘<code>-Ppdf</code>’ option
to <i>dvips</i>, which you might have found from the answer
<a href="FAQ-fuzzy-type3.html">“wrong type of fonts”</a>. The obvious
solution is to switch to the trivial substitute ‘<code>-Pwww</code>’,
which selects the necessary type 1 fonts for PDF generation,
but nothing else: however, this will leave you with undesirable bitmap
fonts in your PDF file. The “proper” solution is to find a
way of expressing what you want to do, using type 1 fonts.
