+%D Personally I think that using \TEX\ macro packages is
+%D complicated by the way fonts are handled. Apart from the
+%D many encodings, we also deal with different naming schemes.
+%D Confronted with this problem, I decided to change the
+%D definitions into:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \definebodyfont [12pt] [rm] [tf=Times-Roman at 12pt]
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D combined with for instance:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \definefontsynonym [Times-Roman] [tir]
+%D \stoptyping

+%   \definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted] [SerifBoldSlanted]
+%   \definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]    [SerifBold]
