A NOVICE (me) is having problems attempting to underline text in a nroff-to-ps filter I am writing. 40 740 moveto (Very )show /Times-Roman findfont 12 scalefont setfont underline also ---> (few words are used)show /Courier findfont 12 scalefont setfont ( in these lines.)show What I would really like to have is is a function that is "/BeginUnderline", and another that is "/DoUnderline" such that I would invoke /BeginUnderline just before the phrase, and /DoUnderline just after the phrase. Can anyone give a suggestion as how this should be done?? Thankyou...... tony.... -- +------------------------------------ | Tony Field ..uunet!utai!calgary!ajfcal!tony | Co-Design Information Systems Ltd. | Calgary, Alberta, Canada voice: (403) 266-3239

If it is nroff-to-ps, nroff will generate underscore characters for you. So
what is the problem?
