Dear Y&Y'ers,<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Installing
on Vista wasn't hard.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>First,
install as per the Y&Y distribution (I used version 2.2).<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Read
carefully all the warnings and suggestions offered during
installation.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>I had to
find the PSFONTS= environment variable, where the pfb files are
stored,<br>
and enter it into dviwindo.ini myself.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Do not use
Adobe Type Manager to install type 1 fonts.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Use
Vista's font manager. It works fine. You have to tell it where to look
for type 1 fonts. In my case, they are in the directory
c:\psfonts\pfm.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>To access
Vista's font manager, go to Control Panel, choose the Classical View,
then click on Fonts. Under the File menu item, click on "Install new
font". Browse to locate the folder holding the pfm fonts, choose
Select All, and then Install.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>If you
upgrade Vista, you will have to repeat this process.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>There are
a few fonts that Vista would not load. They are considered obsolete by
other TeX vendors (e.g., PCTeX). These include "tir" and
"tio" (and probably "tirsc").<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>I had to
fiddle with the printer settings, but that's probably a local
thing...<br><br>
Best,<br><br>
