- Any DVItool should suffice. The probable trouble is that you aren't using
- a high enough magnification. Usually, the tool will require fonts of the
- magnifications you require. For example, with the set-up I've just started
- using (((CS-TEX - very nice - and only took a few minutes to install - once
- I gave up on their "install" program which has very bad LHArc capability))),
- it defaults to 96x96dpi. This is pretty low resolution. But I should be able
- to use the 180dpi fonts (normally used for printers) to double the screen
- display resolution. This should work - but I only installed it at 10pm last
- night, so I haven't tried much - I got an excellent printout from my BJ-10e
- though. Nice. All I need is more fonts, and I'm getting those from Uni
- today (the fonts are all compatible - and they take a long time to generate
- on the old ST!).
