I try to send the following problem with respect to RALpage to 
the original author but uk.ac.rl.vd is unknown to us.  Could
anyone help.

}To: caag@uk.ac.rl.vd
}Subject: Fonts problem in RALpage
}
}I have just recently installed RALpage written by you.  It works
}find as long as Times-Roman fonts are used.  Whenever, I use the Symbol,
}it just leave a blank space instead of the Greek symbol I was looking
}for (eg.)
}
}	20 200 moveto
}	/Symbol findfont 22 scalefont setfont
}	(Five wizards jump quickly.)show
}
}It just leave a string of spaces follow by the '.' character.
}I check the RALPAGELIB and come to the conclusion that all
}the requirement are setup, symbol*.snf are there, it is describes
}in metrics/Symbol, metric-map, font-map, screen-fonts and
}disk-cache-list.
}
}Another is, if I use Courier-Oblique, I only get Courier without
}the Oblique!!
}
}Can you help?  Many thanks in advance.
