Hello, I'm writing an Encapsulated Postscript file containing text on a Window XP machine. I'm using MS Publisher to test it by importing the file into a .pub doc. I've found that any font name I use that has spaces in it (ie: Bookman Old Style) will not work. Only fonts that have no spaces in them will work. For instance: /Ariel findfont 100 scalefont setfont works fine, while: /Bookman Old Style findfont 100 scalefont set font does not. Note, I can use a '-' when modifying the font for Bold and Italic like so: /Ariel-Bold findfont But that does not work with the font name itself. Can anyone tell me how to specify a font name that contains spaces in it such as: /Bookman Old Style findfont Thanks, landon
