But to recreate the *.fmt file one needs a *.ini file. Eric, jadextex.ini and pdfjadextex.ini are currently not included in the jadetex package. Apparently, you also require configuration lines in fmtutil.cnf. On my Debian system these configuration lines are kept in a special location for the jadetex package, and the whole special fmtutil.cnf is # jadefmtutil.cnf: configuration file for fmtutil; jade flavor. # invoke with 'fmtutil -cnffile ' # # format engine pattern-file arguments jadetex tex language.dat &latex jadetex.ini pdfjadetex pdftex language.dat &pdflatex pdfjadetex.ini Eric, could you please provide this special configuration file and jadetex.ini and pdfjadetex.ini with the Cygnus jadetex package? Without it I don't believe we can change the sizes of anything with the ftmutil command. (I have tried fmtutil --all, and it redoes every *.fmt file *except* for jadetex.fmt and pdfjadetex.fmt, and I believe the cause is these missing files from your jadetex package. Thanks in advance.
