[yandytex] DVIWindo and MikTeX 2.7

[Jochen Autschbach]

Dear Stéphane

I've been using MikTeX and Y&Y for some years now. Most documents can be typeset and viewed with either system / dvi viewer if I use
\usepackage[LY1]{fontenc}
in the preamble. You need to have the Type1 fonts installed in a place where dviwindo can find them (MathTime, MTPro, Lucida, Computer Modern, or whatever you use).  I never had issues with poor resolution when using dviwindo.

Hope this helps.

Jochen

Hi All,

I currently have only one distribution of LaTeX on my machine (PC, 
Windows XP).
I was said that DVIWindo is a great dvi viewer, so I obtained the YandY 
CD from someone I knew had them, and chose to install the fonts, 
DVIWindo and all, but not the actual LaTeX part of YandY.

The dvi files I produced with MikTeX and that were displaying well on 
YaP, don't display well on DVIWindo. For example ligatures do not 
appear, and the resolution is terrible.

I have set the TEXFONTS parameter in my dviwindo.ini file to the 
location of the fonts folder of my MikTeX distribution.

Now here is the question:
Has anyone tried, and, hopefully, succeeded, to have DVIWindo work with 
DVI's produced by MikTeX ?

Help of any form will be more than welcome.

Many thanks !!
Stéphane.
