Bug#131338: xdvi: please make a keystroke to toggle t1lib option
Package: tetex-bin
Version: 1.0.7+20011202-2
Severity: wishlist
The same dvi file rendered by xdvi using the PostScript version of a font and
using a rasterized version of the font does not look exactly the same. The
difference seems to be greater for some font families than others. I have been
looking at raster fonts for more than a decade, and I find that looking at the
PostScript versions is disappointing and that my printed output matches the
raster presentation better. Perhaps not all would agree.
In any case, that is motivation for the request to be able to turn the use of
direct rendering of PostScript fonts on and off within an instance (a keystroke
that toggles the command line option -not1lib).
