Hi Liviu,

Thanks for your reply.

Since the teTeX homepage has for some time carried a "de-support  
notice" I'm quite happy to upgrade to TeXLive, irrespective of  
whether the fonts I need are preinstalled. Since teTeX has been  
unsupported so long I'm glad that TeXLive has finally made it into  
portage, and it will be a necessary upgrade at some point or another.

I'll get on the case with this this evening, but in the meantime, any  
idea how to add fonts to TeXLive, in case I need to?

Cheers,

Stroller.
