Using Custom Fonts with LaTeX and dvips

To get dvips to find custom fonts (such as RMTMI.pfa) set the variable TEXFONTS to the directory where the fonts are. For example to recursively search your ~/tex/fonts/ in your home directory set TEXFONTS to be ${HOME}/tex/fonts//: like so

export TEXFONTS="${HOME}/tex/fonts//:"

and for csh / tcsh:
setenv TEXFONTS ${HOME}/tex/fonts//:
