Hello,
Is there some Sample PlainTeX documents using Lucida ?
I bought lucida fonts several years ago from Y&Y and used it with plaintex, it was OK.
On last june I changed my computer and I bought the lucida complete font set from TUG.
I am only now trying to use these fonts. I think the installation is OK because I succeed to compile the Sample LaTeX document using Lucida and obtain right .ps and .pdf files. But I am unable to get something right with a PlainTex file.
I tried to do like before and I include (by /input at the beginning of macro file) a file called "texnansi.tex" and a file called "lcdplain.tex" (obtained from the Y&Y distribution).
My source file is "ex1_imp.tex" and "a4luc.tex" is a macro file (calling "texnansi.tex" and "lcdplain.tex").
I get the following answer:

Could someone tell me what I should do ?
I use texlive 2005 on a linux system.
Thanks a lot.
