I was trying to use "gsrenderfont" in fromm the fontutils-0.4 release, and
got the following error:
=====

% gsrenderfont -verbose -fontname Helvetica stuff

Parsing encoding file dvips.enc...
%GSPreviewError% Error: /stackunderflow in --dup--
%GSPreviewError% ostack:
%GSPreviewError% estack:operator_403588--nostringval----nostringval--false--nost
ringval----nostringval--false--nostringval----nostringval----nostringval----nost
ringval----nostringval--
%GSPreviewError% dstack:338/4016/20052/100
=====

in the writefont.PS program supplied with the system the following
line isn't completing without errors, thought the function
parse-encoding-file does seem to finish:

/output-encoding output-encoding-filename parse-encoding-file def

I don't really want to debug postscript code. Has anyone had this problem/
can anyone help?
