This is probably an RTFM, but I can't find anything in TFM that addresses it. Please help. When I try to load a .pfb file (like Adobe's por_____.pfb (palatino-roman)) gs complains with a screenfull of numbers (0's and 3's) and a complaint beginning ``/undefined'' If it would help, I can try to capture the output and post it, but this must be a simple problem. I'm using the gs24 binary from prep.ai.mit.edu on an MSDOS machine (ZEOS 386-25, MS-DOS 4, QEMM). If I use pfbtopfa to make the font a .pfa font, I get similar errors. I also can't run pfbtogs.ps. What might I be doing wrong? ---Jon -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jonathan M.
