I used LaTeX to write two books and am working on a third. I just
upgraded to Fedora 12, and thought something looked really wrong with my
draft printouts, which looked smaller. I couldn't belive my eyes and
actually printed a page I'd already printed (back under F11) and
compared them side by side. CMR12 has shrunk! I thought at first
something had gone wrong in the printing, but there are no errors, and
the scale factor is 100%. LaTeX is not substituting a smaller font,
because the lines on the page are indentical and if a smaller font was
being used, there would be more text per page.
Has CMR12 changed? If so, how do I get my old CMR12 back so all three
books look the same? I'm baffled as to what to do about this. I'm not
even sure where or how to ask about this.
