I write postscript fonts. for years i have been adding them into the .PRD
files of word [4dos] and now those are not being used in w4w. I took the adobe
afm file and turned it into a pfm with REFONT, and installed it into the
win.ini file. w4w knows about the font but when I print, all i get is a blank
sheet. the problem is that the generated postscript does NOT have the text that
i want to display (ABCD) only the fontname (LetterHead).
Since we download the fonts permenantly only when the printer is turned off/on,
the PSO file is an empty file.

note: that the Times-Roman text (both of the bcdg's) are in the output file.
the LetterHead font (BCDG) is not in the output file. why?
