Much applause is due to Berthold for enumerating the encoding
issues clearly.
One glimmer of hope is PostScript Level Two ``glyphshow'',
which renders glyphs by name, bypassing encoding issues.
But seriously, we could use a forum to discuss and attempt to
resolve some of these encoding problems -- they are a large pain
in the neck.
