Something came up today that has me perplexed. I have a document that
I created in January that uses:
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{cmss}
to make everything sans serif. When typeset in January, it looked
great and all nice Postscript fonts were used. I just tried
typesetting it and it took forever as mf had to create all the fonts.
When it was done, it looked terrible (all bitmapped fonts). I did a
quick search on the list and found this command:
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
which worked perfectly.
My question is, what in LaTeX has changed? Why did cmss work 7 months
ago and why does it not work now?
Thank you.
