Howdy folks, I've got this wonderful bit of postscript (below) that I'm having some difficulties with. It *should* reencode a named font vector with the character coding for multinational (ie X11 character sets). My problem is that is doesn't. I get an "invalid font" error with an offending command of "show". The code itself is the reencode program from the greenbook. The code I wrote is somewhat simpler/more straight-forward but causes the same error. Any ideas? TIA. --- Joe Gaudreau @ Polygen Corporation, Waltham, MA 02254 (617)890-2888 UUCP: {princeton,mit-eddie,buita,sunne}!polygen!joeg o / o / o / ------ x ------ Cut Here ----- x ----- Cut Here ----- x ----- Cut Here ------ o \ o \ o \ %! %%Title: PostScript font reencoding procedure %%EndComments /F { findfont exch scalefont setfont } bind def /R { findfont begin currentdict dup length dict begin { %forall 1 index /FID ne {def} {pop pop} ifelse } forall /FontName exch def dup length 0 ne { %if /Encoding Encoding 256 array copy def 0 exch { %forall dup type /nametype eq { %ifelse Encoding 2 index 2 index put pop 1 add }{ %else exch pop } ifelse } forall } if pop currentdict dup end end /FontName get exch definefont pop } bind def /NewFontVect [ 128 /.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef /.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef /.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef /.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef/.notdef /space/exclamdown/cent/sterling/currency/yen/brokenbar/section /dieresis/copyright/ordfeminine/guillemotleft/logicalnot/hyphen/registered/macron /degree/plusminus/twosuperior/threesuperior/acute/mu/paragraph/periodcentered /cedilla/onesuperior/ordmasculine/guillemotright /onequarter/onehalf/threequarters/questiondown /Agrave/Aacute/Acircumflex/Atilde/Adieresis/Aring/AE/Ccedilla /Egrave/Eacute/Ecircumflex/Edieresis/Igrave/Iacute/Icircumflex/Idieresis /Eth/Ntilde/Ograve/Oacute/Ocircumflex/Otilde/Odieresis/multiply /Oslash/Ugrave/Uacute/Ucircumflex/Udieresis/Yacute/Thorn/germandbls /agrave/aacute/acircumflex/atilde/adieresis/aring/ae/ccedilla /egrave/eacute/ecircumflex/edieresis/igrave/iacute/icircumflex/idieresis /eth/ntilde/ograve/oacute/ocircumflex/otilde/odieresis/divide /oslash/ugrave/uacute/ucircumflex/udieresis/yacute/thorn/ydieresis ] def NewFontVect /Courier-New /Courier R 14 /Courier-New F 100 600 moveto (this is a test) show 100 580 moveto (\260\300\320\340\360 and other \352) show showpage
