I've tried this with gs241 and AIX 3.1. It works for most fonts, but the Helvetica and Times-Roman families will not work, probably because they are Type4 fonts (?). Is there any way to convert the fonts to a usable format ? Are the fonts in AIX 3.2 different from those in AIX 3.1 ? -- Pim Zandbergen domain : pim@cti-software.nl CTI Software BV uucp : uunet!mcsun!sun4nl!ctisbv!pim Laan Copes van Cattenburch 70 phone : +31 70 3542302 2585 GD The Hague, The Netherlands fax : +31 70 3512837
