Please make sure, that your report is concise, clear and reproduceable, also make sure, that you are using the newest version of the dc fonts and that your bug isn't fixed yet. The following information is needed: Which font produced the bug? Which mode do you use? What is the error message issued by METAFONT? Which character carries the error? Is the error visible in the output and how can it be described? Always try to generate output and look at it first, some errors may be invisible at all. Please include the .log file in your report. The fonts should work at resolutions from 200dpi upwards, and in a size range from 5pt to 100pt. If your effective resolution lies below 200dpi (screen modes or fonts at reduced sizes), if the parameter blacker of your mode is negative, or if you generate a font outside the given size range, problems are to be expected and do not qualify as bugs. The funny fonts needn't work at all, they surely don't work at low sizes. The typewriter fonts don't work below 8pt. If you have a fix for your your problem, it is very appreaciated. Please report errors to J"org Knappen knappen@vkpmzd.kph.uni-mainz.de In case, that you are not sure, whether a strange feature or error message qualifies as a bug, you may want to ask a question on the metafont mailing list.
