Okay - I'm making some headway...I've now been able to add more characers to the array. New problem: How might I determine the appropriate values to the current dictionary? I've attempted to copy/paste a similar character, changing the reference from '/c20' to '/c21' as an example. However, the actual appearance of /c21 is the same as /c20.

I have a feeling its somewhere within this string...

1 dict begin /_i 0 def currentdict end mark exch { begin {
<~s8W-!s8W-!~>

and that I would need to change the values for the desired output character accordingly within the < > range. How might I determine the appropriate values?

/c20 {
12 0 setcharwidth

3.0 0.0 0.0 8.0 0.0 -1.0 cm
