<div><i>What happens when you say "\font A=CMR10" </i>(note: no slash before "A"). Do you have any idea of which iteration of TeX David was writing, since TeX82 would require
<i>"\font \A=CMR10" </i>whilst TeX78 would have required (as David himself notes)
<i>"\:A=CMR10". </i>BNB cc'd as she may know the answer.<br>
