Vista refused to load them, and several months ago I complained to PCTeX
that they didn't include them. Technical support there said: "The ti
fonts seem to be old Y&Y times fonts... These fonts may be
difficult to install in PCTeX (or in any modern TeX distribution).
You can check the Y&Y support list to see if anyone has solved this
problem

Um ... which warnings and suggestions?! I've got both the
manuals<br>
and the Tenhical Addendum for 2.2.3 and 2.2.8 ... Then I
have a<br>
bunch of printouts on 8.5 x 11 paper, with such filenames
as<br>
news.txt, instextr.txt, editlink.txt, CTinstal.txt,
various<br>
`README.TXT' printouts (Oh, Berthold, why did you not DATE
these<br>
things?! Not to mention use unique filenames! ;-))

</x-tab>If I had
overlooked their suggestion to add PSFONTS=....... to dviwindo.ini, the
installation would not have worked. I can't remember what else I was
warned, but the other warnings did not apply to me.<br><br>
