Hello Aandi Inston,

after reading the official introduction to PostScript Level 2 I decided to use glyphshow. And it works!

Thanks very much indeed for your quick help!

For everyone who is having the same problem, it goes like this:
100 100 moveto
(Let's use some umlauts: ) show /Adieresis glyphshow /Odieresis glyphshow ( it does work!) show

A basic set for the european special characters:
�	/acircumflex 	�	/adieresis 	�	/Adieresis
�	/agrave 	�	/ccedilla 	�	/Ccedilla
�	/eacute 	�	/Eacute 	�	/ecircumflex
�	/edieresis 	�	/egrave 	&#8364;	/Euro
�	/idieresis 	�	/ocircumflex 	�	/odieresis
�	/Odieresis 	�	/germandbls 	�	/udieresis
�	/Udieresis

Simon
