DVI yes. PS has its use 1. as alternate format, at least in arXiv.org, 2. as easy-to-create vector graphics format. > I tried to find any strong recommendation about DVI in the "standards" > and "maintain" manuals, but couldn't find anything. The Standards reference - Makefile targets 'dvi' and 'install-dvi', - a variable 'dvidir', - a configure option --dvidir. All of these would have to be removed. > So is this about changing automake/autoconf then? I wouldn't suggest to change Automake or Autoconf before the Standards have been changed. Bruno
