I am slightly confused, is ISOLatin1Encoding an encoding vector that 
I should pass to ReEncodeSmall? I have enclosed the PostScript code I
used to try this but, ISOLatin1Encoding was not defined.

/reencsmalldict 36 dict def

/ReEncodeSmall

   reencsmalldict begin
   /newcodesandnames exch def

   /newfont basefontdict maxlength dict def
   
   basefontdict
   {
      exch dup /FID ne
      {
         dup /Encoding eq
         {
            exch dup length array copy
            newfont 3 1 roll put
         }
         {  
            exch newfont 3 1 roll put
         } ifelse
      }
      {
         pop pop
      } ifelse
   } forall

   newfont /FontName newfontname put

   newcodesandnames length 2 idiv
   {newfont /Encoding get 3 1 roll put}
   repeat

   newfontname newfont definefont pop

   end 
} def

If I am approaching this the wrong way, I have a few questions.

(1) How do I access the ISOLatin1Encoding encoding vector?
(2) Do I use a user-defined font, as you mentioned? If so, where
    does ISOLatin1Encoding fit in.
(3) What PostScript revision has it defined?
(4) Where can I find a list of all the names used in this encoding
    vector?
    
Thanks much for your help.
