Hi, NeWS friends.
I tried to make kanji fonts for NeWS 1.1  but I was unable to. 
``dumpfont'' does not work correctly for kanji fonts.
Does anyone know how to make kanji fonts?

I tried to test ``dumpfont'' like this:
	% cd <somewhere>
	% ln -s /usr/NeWS/fonts/Kanji16.fb
	% dumpfont -d . -a Kanji16.fb
	% rm Kanji16.fb
	% dumpfont -d Kanji16.afb
	% bldfamily -d . Kanji

``Kanji.ff'' is  made, but is not correct.
The generated Adobe ASCII format file ``Kanji16.afb'' uses an
unknown code.  Its code is neither EUC nor JIS and appears to 
be the root of the problem.

Thanks
