Hi Netland,

I've just downloaded some of the PostScript fonts on cica.cica.indiana.edu
and installed them in WordPerfect 5.0 (correctly as i do hope).
Because I'm not one of the lucky guys to own a postscript printer,
I always print to disk using the "Apple LaserWriter Plus" driver and then
convert the resulting PostScript file with GoScript.
This works perfectly fine as long as I only use GoScript "built-in" fonts.
When I try to use the downloaded softfonts I always get the message:

  Interpreter Error: Name is not defined  Near: eexec

As I do know very little about the PostScript language, I have no idea
what's wrong...
(Can my problem be solved with GHOSTscript ?)

   Any help would be greatly appreciated

       Bye Martin
