- Hi. I would like to obtain a list of fonts that are included in the
- lj_0.fli font library file. I am puzzled by one thing, however. I have
- been using TeX with the notion that lj_0, 1, 2, 3, etc. are corresponding
- scaled sizes for fonts that are found in all font libraries. However,
- why wouldn't TeX scale fonts larger or smaller using just one font
- library? Is the lj_0.fli file a collection of many different fonts
- at various point sizes all scaled at zero? If so, why does TeX need
- separate font library files for different scaled magnifications when
- just one set is needed?
-
- Thanks
