As a postscript (sorry) to my last message, I've tried just doing

100 100 moveto
%
368 384 true [368 0 0 -384 0 384]
{
<
  [hexstring]
>
} imagemask
%
showpage

and always get a blank page. The code between the % signs is exactly
what was called by the BuildChar for my user-defined font that works
perfectly. I'm at a loss ... anyone see the flaw?

Thanks,
chris
