Subject says it all:

Does there exist a variant of one of the well-known previewers that
works on the Sun 386i (aka Roadrunner) ?

We have texsun under sunview, which works fine on the 3/xx's but on
the 386i it doesn't display correctly. It shows some kind of mirror
images of all the characters. 

If necessary we would consider switching to Xwindows instead of
SunView. If possible at all, we would like to avoid having to keep
a separate set of fonts just for the 386i's.

Any kind of advice is greatly appreciated, thank you.
