Randy,
	The other fonts work fine - but you must tell vtroff to
	use them.  The versatec itself does not use down-loaded fonts.
	They are used by the `rvcat' and `vcat' routines.  The versatec
	just gets a bit stream.  The proper technique is documented
	(poorly) in vtroff(1).  The instructions I am going to give you
	are for 4.1Bsd.  To use the bocklin fonts in all positions,
		vtroff -F bocklin ...
	is sufficient.  To replace just one mounted font, try
		vtroff -1 bocklin ...
	Be aware that most of the fonts in /usr/lib/vfont are missing
	both characters and entire size/type groups.  Access to particular
	point sizes and fonts within the four mounted must be done from
	within your troff file.
