st: Re: sjlatex under MiKTeX 2.4 and above

["Zurab Sajaia" <zsajaia@hotmail.com>]

Roger,

I've -sjlatex- (downloaded under Stata 9) and It's been working fine with 
MiKTeX 2.5; few days ago I switched to 2.6 (there is 2.7 available already 
but my tex editor might not be compatible with it) and everything continues 
to work without problems, although I do get warnings like "LaTeX Font 
/b/c12/cWarning:/b/c0/c Some font shapes were not available, defaults 
substituted", but compiled output looks ok :)

Not sure if it helps,
Zurab
