Edh and Thorn are included in the dcfonts on their standard iso-8859-latin1

are not yet included to dclfont.sty.

curiously enough, i spent some time on Saturday cleaning up my system
for generating DC layouts for PS fonts. It involves running afm2tfm on
the AFM file, with the ec encoding specified, and then running a
postprocessor on the vpl file to add in the missing characters before
running vptovf. all the characters are there, but:
a) in some fonts they are ugly. eg a thorn is fudged if the native
font does not have it
b) some fonts need an extra little font with things like dotless j
and ffi in. this is messy. my main experiments were with Lucida
Bright, which has these glyphs already
since my last version, the system now produces both the invisible
space (cwm) and the visible space character, the latter generated with
some dvi rules in the .vpl file. the latter breaks emTeX's previewer!
well, not break, but the character is shown wrongly. dvips handles it
correctly.
if anyone wants to use my material, they can find it in the Uk TeX
(Internet/Daughter) Archive on ftp.tex.ac.uk in pub/archive/fonts/dcps.

I posted a driver for the BJ10e earlier this year (UKTEX no. 8, I think).
It uses DVIDOT to drive the printer at 360x360 dpi in IBM emulation mode.
It uses any fonts you have (as PXL/PK/FLI files).

i got confused about where to place this in the archive. in the end I
decided to place it an emTeX contributions directory. so in
ftp.tex.ac.uk its in
systems/pc/emtex/contrib/bj10e.dvidot
and on uk.ac.tex in

Subject: Unhyphenable hyphens
Can anyone suggest a tolerably elegant way of TeX-ing a part-number with
hyphens in it, such as DH-300-BB, so that the line containing the part-number
never gets broken at any of the hyphens in the part number?
I have tried \penalty-9999 immediately before the partnumber, but it still
broke at the hyphen after the DH. I tried \hbox{DH-300-BB} but that caused
an overfull box. I have tried \-DH-300-BB but (of course?) it didn't
work. I have tried large positive penalties both sides of the hyphen in
question but it still broke there. And all despite the fact that putting
\break in front of the offending part-number didn't even cause an underfull
box, although I wouldn't have minded much if it had.
What am I missing? p93 of the TeXbook suggests using \hbox, but why is TeX
refusing to break BEFORE the \hbox ?
Yours frustratedly,
Nigel Arnot

The penalty concerned is \exhyphenpenalty (the penalty for breaking at an
explicit hyphen); if set to 10000 or more, no line will ever be broken at
an explicit hyphen. But remember: this penalty will only be inspected at
end-of-paragraph, so it's no use making it local to your \partnumber macro.

Because the resulting line would have been too underfull. Perhaps
\emergencystretch will help here. You might also try setting your
part numbers in a font which has no \hyphenchar: if your default
font is ITC New Baskerville, for example, you could create a variant
for use solely within part-numbers:
\font \mainfont = ps-nbr
\font \partfont = ps-nbr
\hyphenchar \partfont = -1
\def \partno #1{{\partfont #1}}
%%% and loosen things up a little:
\emergencystretch = 1 em
\tolerance = 9999
\hbadness = 4999

First, you need a font with the IBM OEM character set. IBM contributed
Courier (in Type1 format) to the X11 Consortium. Although it is not
present in the AFM files that they distribute, the OEM character set is
burried in there.
the AFM files have been placed on ftp.tex.ac.uk in
pub/archive/fonts/Courier, as
cr-pc8.afm
crb-pc8.afm
crbi-pc8.afm
cri-pc8.afm
where the Type1 fonts are as well
Now you can use PS2PK to build TeX PK files for Courier with the IBM OEM
character set at any size you need.
Second, you have to get TeX to read the files. Unfortunately, TeX cannot
read arbitrary binary data (and a screen dump with control characters and
line drawing characters and goodness knows what else counts as binary).
I solved this problem with a little program that replaces non-ascii
characters with {\char999} and I wrote my own hackish little
version of verbatim (based on the one in the TeXbook) that "does
the right thing". There are better TeXperts than me for solving
the second problem. And I'd love to here a better solution.

Subject: TeX binary kit for sparc machines available
I have prepared a `canned' TeX setup to run on Sparc-based Unix
machines. I compiled things using gcc2.3 under sunos4.1 on a Sun
sparcstation, in the hope that enough other people have something
similar and it will work for them with no further effort at all. In any
case, it may be of use to any Unix site getting started, as all the
compilations are ready for a `make' and the support files are in place.
The kit is available for Internet ftp from ftp.tex.ac.uk, as
pub/sparctex.tar.Z. 20-30 megabytes.
What I have provided is a hierarchy which must go under /usr/local/tex
(for the paths to come out right). there is:
bin you need this on your path
man man pages
doc local guide
lib support
src source for everything I compiled
the support directories include:
all the fonts you might want: tfm files, including the common
PostScript ones; afm files for PostScript fonts; .mf files for
Metafont sources; pk fonts built for public domain fonts
a whole slew of LaTeX style files as I found them in my own working
directory. includes style files for PostScript fonts
prebuilt formats for plain TeX and LaTeX. the latter is built *with
the New Font Selection Scheme*. ITS GOOD FOR YOU.
prebuilt plain base for metafont
the user commands are (inter alia):
initex
tex
latex
dvips (dvi to PostScript)
xdvi (preview under X Windows)
(these two both build pk fonts dynamically)
bibtex
makeindex
ps2pk (build .pk fonts from Type1 PostScript sources)
dvidvi
afm2tfm
The whole setup should provide a sensible working environment for a
new TeX site which has a PostScript printer attached to (say) a
sparcstation running X Windows, and wants to process LaTeX or plain TeX
documents. More sophisticated users will have to fiddle.
Documentation and support is minimal. If you pick this up, and have
questions like:
- what does .tar.Z mean
- i dont have permission to unpack under /usr/local/tex
- i have sunview, and want a previewer
- i want amslatex
- i have a copy of Bodoni, where do i put it
- how do i convert this style file to the NFSS
I am sorry, but you are on your own. You can ask the general TeX
community, who will be kind to you, and may answer. I might do myself.
I certainly will if you offer me money to do so :-}

Subject: greekTeX Version 3.1 now available in uk tex archive
Kostis Dryllerakis' Greek package for TeX has been placed in the UK
TeX Internet Archive (ftp.tex.ac.uk) in pub/archive/fonts/greek/kd.
A description of the release follows.
sebastian
ANNOUNCEMENT: GreekTeX ver 3.1
After some review work and bug fixes I have realeased the new version
of the greekTeX package based on the kd greek family of fonts. Here is
an extract from the readme file:
GreekTeX is a complete package for typesetting greek
(modern or ancient) texts within the framework of
plain TeX or LaTeX. It supplies a set of fonts based
on the excellent ones originally developed by
Sylvio Levi in the States and the modifications made
thereafter by Haralambous in France.
The approach adopted is different from both the
previous ones since it uses full 256 character fonts
and ligatures as the principal method of accenting
or "breathing" letters. This makes the macros more
robust and easier to use within TeX and LaTeX
environments.
Differences from the Previous release
* Fixed font bugs in ligatures and added some more characters
according to suggestions by J"org Knappen (J"org, thanks for
your comments and fixes)
* Integrated Unix and Dos Release
* Unix and Dos (emtex) filters for translating greek ISO standard
character files to tex input files (for modern greek)
Thanks to all the people that helped in the way and who contributed
with their bug reports and suggested fixes.

Following a request from Y&Y, after user problems, the style file
`lucidab' which is part of my PSNFSS package has been edited, so
that the font metric files referred to have the same names as those
distributed by Y&Y for Lucida Bright. I had changed the names to
follow Karl Berry's naming scheme for fonts, which confused people who
purchased the fonts. If you want to follow my lead, use style option
`lucidabx'.
