Re: 14.4 fonts

[David Arnold <darnold@northcoast.com>]

All, Yahoo! This worked! :-) However, be careful cutting and pasting

\definebodyfont [14,4pt,17.3pt,20.7pt] [tt]
  [tf=cmtt12   sa 1,
   sl=cmsltt10 sa 1,
   it=cmitt10  sa 1,
  tfa=cmtt12   sa 1.200,
  tfb=cmtt12   sa 1.440,
  tfc=cmtt12   sa 1.728,
  tfd=cmtt12   sa 2.074]

into font-cmx.tex. Note the 14,4pt is wrong, which should be 14.4pt.
