is run the program initex as if you were running TEX, using lplain.tex as the
input le. (Remark: For PCTEX there is an \i" option for the tex command
rather than a separate initex command.) (lplain.tex is a standard LATEX
le that should already be installed on your system. It is not included in the
AMS-LATEX distribution.)
After some initial processing, initex will stop and ask for another lename
because it cannot nd the le lfonts.tex. (Remember, you renamed it according to the rst paragraph of this section.) When it stops, just type lfonts.new
in response to the prompt (\Please type another input le name") and continue.
There are three other les that will be input in a similar way. They are indicated
in the following table.

basefont.tex If you intend to use AMSFonts 2.0.
xxxlfont.sty
newlfont.sty If you don't intend to use AMSFonts 2.0.
Note: When basefont.tex is used the following math symbols will be undened:
\mho, \Join, \Box, \Diamond, \leadsto, \lhd, \unlhd, \rhd, and \unrhd.
Alternate versions of all these symbols exist in the AMSFonts math symbol
fonts (which presumably you have, if you used basefont.tex) and they can be
dened using \newsymbol. See the AMSFonts User's Guide.
After quite a bit of further processing you will wind up at a * prompt,
whereupon you should type \dump and return. You will then have a le called
lplain.fmt. Depending on your implementation of TEX, this le may be automatically placed in the directory where TEX looks for format les or it may be
in the currently connected directory. If the latter is true, you must copy it to the
directory where TEX will look for format les (see your TEX's documentation
for the name of that directory).
