Ammendment: Change margin of error tolerance (S4.3.2) Ammendment number: 01 Submitted by: Don Hosek Date: 25 July 1990 Currently says: If a DVI file requests a magnification within 2% of a supported magnification, the driver should use that font without warning. Change to read: TeX and METAFONT compute font magnifications with different precisions. Further, calculations done by TeX and/or a DVI driver are subject to roundoff errors. As a method of accomodating these calculations, if the magnification requested for a font is within 0.2% of a supported magnification, the driver should use the supported magnification without warning. Reason for change: In discussion on DRIV-L, it was shown that rounding errors would not cause a variation greater than 0.2% (and that only in extreme cases at high resolutions). Tom Reid, in his mail of 3-July-1990 gives the numerical proof of this as well as a simple algorithim for handling locating the font when calculations are off slightly as indicated. The purpose of the rounding error calculation is *not* to do things like take care of the case where a user requested cmr10 at 11pt instead of cmr10 at 10.95pt.
