+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Listed below are some of the more common (or more cryptically
+named) typesetter fonts.
+.PP
+In the directories
+.F /usr/lib/font
+and
+.F /usr/jerq/font
+are kept tables for fonts available on some or all of
+the Autologic APS-5 phototypesetter, the Mergenthaler Linotron 202
+phototypesetter, the Canon laser printer,
+and the Teletype 5620 terminal running under
+.IR mux (9.1).
+Those directories may be consulted for the
+current list of offerings.
+.PP
+Most fonts come in families, e.g.
+.LR Souvenir ,
+.L SouvenirI
+(italic),
+.L SouvenirB
+(bold),
+.L SouvenirBI
+(bold italic),
+.L SouvenirBK
+(demi-bold, `black')
+.L SouvenirKI
+(demi-bold italic).
+For the 5620 and the Canon there is a
+separate font table for each point size, e.g.
+.LR CW.11 .
+.PP
+In
+.I troff
+fonts must be `mounted' in a `font position'.
+The default set is
+.L
+R I B BI H HB HK CW CH S
+for the 202 and the Canon
+and
+.L
+R I B H CW S S1 GR
+for the APS-5.
+Other fonts may be mounted with the
+.L .fp
+request.
+Fonts with long names must be given aliases; see
+the
+.IR troff
+manual.
