| John and Malcolm,
Finally our move has been decided, and we shall be moving to NY in
August, where Beate will be at the German Mission to the UN for 3 years.
David will probably attend the UN school there. At the end of June we are
going to Manhattan flat-hunting.
In connection with the move, since I can't take my own PC because of
the voltage/cycles incompatibility, I am transferring all my files to
Beate's laptop, which runs under XP Pro. Disappointedly, after solving some
initial problems such as Tex not accepting 'MR&C' in a pathname, I finally
hit the same problem as I had in London, namely that Tex works but dvips
doesn't. Since I now know how to produce PDF from Postscript, this is the
only link in the chain that doesn't work. Does one of you have access to a
tame guru? I can supply:
the log file
the error file from the path searching
the script I use
the path and environment variables in the system
As before, some fonts are not found, in particular '-' and the 'fi' glyph.
Grateful for any advice,
Mike

I apologise for interjecting in a conversation which though posted on a
public forum, seems to be a private communication. However, have you
considered using pdflatex ?
