I have never had any problems with EXP fonts, but, since you reported the same problem on two different machines, my guess is that some other software in your...

Quach, I strongly suspect there is some other software installed on both of your Windows XP computers that is interfering with the normal operation of TrueType...
As I recall, several years ago there were problems in printing EXP files to HP Laserjet printers. I think the problem was in proper spacing; that is, math...
Did you check the FAQs at the website (www.expswp.com) under the HPLaserJet problem. This may be the issue that discusses downloading softfonts. Bill ... == ...
Bill Davis is correct that there is an FAQ about the LaserJet problem: http://www.expswp.com/support/FAQ/faq00002.htm I think that there is now another...
Hello, It seems that I have a problem with tabs. For example, I can't format a hanging indent (EXP User's Guide pp. 154-155). I can see the first indent, the...

Use the format paragraph (F2) and there you can specific a hanging indent for the first line of each paragraph. You don't need to do this with tabs. Jon Wilkin...

Thanks Jonathan for your tip. However, with only the format paragraph possibilities (F2) I can't find the way to formatting a hanging indent, I think you also...

F2 (Format paragraph) lets you specify the indentation for the left margin, the right margin, and the first line of paragraphs. If you specify a negative...
Yes, but that doesn't give me a hanging indent, like in the EXP manual, for example pp 154-155. Or in the little attachment. Juan ... [Non-text portions of...

But, Juan, the references on 144 are exactly what F2 does. Look at http://www.nvcc.edu/home/jwilkin/250/spring%202004/proof.wxp In particular, go look 1. and...

OK Jon, you are completely right. It seems that the left indentation also works as a tab in the first line. Then the manual would be redundant in their...

Exp-perts, Recently I sent an EXP file to a colleague by e-mail attachment, and he replied that he would prefer to receive my paper in the form of a PDF file. ...
I have found that one version of the Adobe reader doesn't handle EXP to PDF very well. Make sure you have the latest reader as a first step. I'm not familiar...
Yes, I use PDF995. None of my students have complained about reading my files. I often check them after conversion and they seem OK to me. You can view some...
There are several things that can become a problem. The typical one is to be sure that the fonts are embedded (others do not have the special EXP fonts)....
Frank, use the freely-available ghostscript/ gsview postscript reader; they will convert from postscript to pdf without problems. You first print your exp file...
I've been using pdfFactory (Web site www.pdffactory.com) for years now with no problem. The price is reasonable, I forgot but it's about $50. ... From: Frank...

You *have* to send the style files exptex.sty and expthmi.sty along with the *.tex file to get the intended result. They instruct LaTeX how to interpret some...
Cliff, In order for text formatting (not math formula formatting) to be transferred to the LaTeX file, you should use the "LaTeX-oriented styles" described in ...
Thanks, Simon. I'm always a bit beleaguered by terminology. When you say that one should use the "LaTeX-oriented styles" are you saying that, if a document is...

I have a chapter length document that in EXP gives the message "The document can be converted to LaTeX." The conversion works fine and a TeX docment is...
