 The March issue of MacWorld says that the extra memory in the Apple
 LaserWriter II NTX can be use for non-roman fonts.  Is the version
 of PostScript in this machine able to handle a dictionary greater
 than 256?  Had anyone implemented a font with more than 256 characters?
 
 I know Adobe is working on a kanji font.  Will it work with the
 Apple LaserWriter II NTX?  Is there a NON-ROMAN version of PostScript?
 
 I am interested in a Chinese Character font, or the ability to write one.
