I want to make a new font which is like Helvetica but has some characters
which are drawn by my own procedures instead of the procedures in the
font already.  I know this isn't that tricky, and is probably described
in the Blue book, but I don't have a copy right now.  Can someone send me
an example of how to do this?

Thanks,
