For the most part I think I've answered my own questions, but the
answers are not pleasing.

I neglected to compile the font description files and was using the
aps files instead. No wonder nothing worked. However, upon looking
for makedev, I discovered my version of the dbw package (2.0) does
not have it (but ironically enough, the release letter brags about
including font description source to help you develop your own
device support -- big deal).

It really looks like I can you this package if only I could compile
the fonts. Any suggestions? Any hope?

Thanks in advance, rich.
