   I have a dumb question.  I have a number of Type 1 fonts
   which won't print on our Sparc-printers, generating the error
   message 'command "eexec" undefined'.  The message is somewhat
   more complicated than that, but I'll refrain from posting
   more unless asked.  Is this due to an older version of NeWS,
   or is it intrinsic to Openwin?  The error page indicated I'm
   using NeWSprint 1.0 fcs, Openwin 2, NeWSprint interpreter
   version 2.1 .  I'd really like to be able to use these fonts!

Version 1.0 does not support T1 fonts.  Get version 2.0.  It does support T1,
although it has a number of bugs (that apparently will be ironed out by the
time version 2.1 rolls around).
