"-f" or "-F"? Both options exist. In your original posting you
said you had used "-F U-P". That will not give you what you
wanted. "-F <dir>" searches a directory (or directory path) for
sub-directory <devname> (where devname is the name of the output
device) and the DESC file and font files. Giving it the font name
won't work at all. "-f<fam>" selects "<fam>" as the default font
family. You'd still have to select the style of font -- R, I, B,
or BI.
As far as I know, any request or macro to change the font family
or style would override the command line option(s). For myself,
I always set my fonts within my document; I've never used the
command line option. (Actually, I set the default font in a style
sheet file, e.g., custom-mom.mom, and then make any necessary
changes in the document proper.)
