\section{\BV\ articles needed}
We need material for \BV! Please send your interesting articles to the
editor, and delight fellow \TeX\ users. \emph{Please note the following 
schedule of copy deadlines}:

Each issue of \BV\ will have a special theme, although articles on any
\TeX-related subject are always welcome. Contributions on the themes
for the remainder of 1994 are eagerly solicited:
\begin{Pilist}{pzd}{43}
\item \BV\ 4.3 will concentrate on graphics;
\item \BV\ 4.4 will be a back to basics special issue on mathematical
 and tabular typesetting;
\item \BV\ 4.5 will try and go beyond \TeX, to see what is on the horizon.
\end{Pilist}
\section{Apology!}
Alan Jeffrey\rq{}s article in \BV\ 4.1 was the victim of the very
font-encoding problems which his \emph{fontinst} software is designed
to solve. Between the proof copies created on a machine in Geneva, and
the final copy created at Aston, one of the font tables turned to garbage.
It came about
because the two \TeX\ setups used the same \emph{virtual} fonts, but
differently-encoded \emph{raw} fonts, so the virtual Times 
assumed that glyphs were at positions where in
fact something very different lived.  For the record, the
\emph{correct} table showing Times in \TeX\ layout is as follows
(answers on a postcard, please, explaining why the lslash and Lslash
glyphs are also here):

Readers who are fascinated by the whole subject of fonts and encodings
will be delighted to find \emph{another} practical article on the
subject in this \BV; we hope that other people will grow to appreciate
\BV\rq{}s continuing definitive saga on the subject that won\rq{}t go away.

\subsection{Colophon}
This issue of \BV\ was to have dealt entirely with practicalities of
\LaTeXe, to go with the group\rq{}s March meeting on this major new
release of the package; we do include a detailed overview of
2$\varepsilon$, but some articles will not be ready until future
issues, and in the meanwhile we find plenty to occupy the modern \TeX
ie.

This issue of the journal was created entirely with the test
distribution of \LaTeXe, using Y\&Y\rq{}s implementation of \TeX, and
printed on a Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4. 

Encoding-hounds will
appreciate knowing that this \BV\ was processed using a slightly
extended Windows ANSI encoding; this was achieved by using Y\&Y\rq{}s
comprehensive font tools to reencode the fonts. This allowed direct
preview using \emph{dviwindo} and Adobe Type Manager. Having the base
fonts in Windows ANSI then allowed me to build a full set of EC-encoded
virtual fonts (using Jeffrey\rq{}s \emph{fontinst}) for when I want a
portable source or access to the full range of EC characters. 
Sometimes you \emph{can} have the best of all possible worlds\ldots

\BV\ is set in ITC New Baskerville Roman and Gill Sans, 
with Computer Modern Typewriter
for literal text.  Production and distribution was undertaken in
Cambridge by Robin Fairbairns and Jonathan Fine.
