LaTeX, by default, restricts the sizes at which you can use its
|
|
default computer modern fonts, to a fixed set of discrete sizes
|
|
(effectively, a set specified by Knuth). The type1cm package removes
|
|
this restriction; this is particularly useful when using scalable
|
|
versions of the cm fonts (Bakoma, or the versions from BSR/Y&Y, or
|
|
True Type versions from Kinch, PCTeX, etc.). In fact, since modern
|
|
distributions will automatically generate any bitmap font you might
|
|
need, type1cm has wider application than just those using scaleable
|
|
versions of the fonts. Note that the LaTeX distribution now contains
|
|
a package fix-cm, which performs the task of type1cm, as well as doing
|
|
the same job for T1- and TS1-encoded ec fonts.
