[texhax] Typesetting - Font Problem?

[Sophia Saucedo]

I am new to tex.  I am having a problem typesetting a document.  Is 
the problem the fonts?  If so how do I fix this?


Entering LaTeX 2.09 COMPATIBILITY MODE
  *************************************************************
     !!WARNING!!    !!WARNING!!    !!WARNING!!    !!WARNING!!

  This mode attempts to provide an emulation of the LaTeX 2.09
  author environment so that OLD documents can be successfully
  processed. It should NOT be used for NEW documents!

  New documents should use Standard LaTeX conventions and start
  with the \documentclass command.

  Compatibility mode is UNLIKELY TO WORK with LaTeX 2.09 style
  files that change any internal macros, especially not with
  those that change the FONT SELECTION or OUTPUT ROUTINES.

  Therefore such style files MUST BE UPDATED to use
           Current Standard LaTeX: LaTeX2e.
  If you suspect that you may be using such a style file, which
  is probably very, very old by now, then you should attempt to
  get it updated by sending a copy of this error message to the
  author of that file.
