- I've downloaded DVIEPS from ymir.claremont.edu and simtel20.
- Neither of them will convert a .dvi file of sb38tex.doc generated
- with sb30tex. I have MSDOS 5.0 loaded high with only HIMEM.SYS
- loaded which provides 626K of free memory. Still, dvieps runs
- out of memory!! I am clueless how the author was able to get
- this beast running. I have chopped my FILES/BUFFERS to 15/10
- which is the absolute minimum needed to load in the 7 fonts of
- sb38tex.doc. The dvieps version is 2.10 with "Experimental"
- appearing in the banner. Am I doing something wrong?? Is there
- an updated version that runs correctly?
-
- EmTeX version may be usable, but it is unclear whether I _must_
- create a font library or if dvidot will use the current PK files
- from sb30tex. (I would prefer no font library and the current PK
- files must be used.)
-
- Any help would be _greatly_ appreciated!
