That's exactly what I'd like to do.  Product uses a LCD module, so I think
it would stand out if the display examples in the docs used the same font
as on the hardware.  Fixed width, solid, block chars.  Ugly, to be sure.

The documents won't be math heavy at all--just text and some tabular stuff,
maybe some images/vector drawings later on (if I can get all the file
formats lined out), so it shouldn't be an extremely difficult conversion.

I'm pretty comfortable with Codewright, but I'll try and remember to
install emacs and give auctex a try.
