Level 2 PostScript can't do UTF-8 as far as I can tell (I dug out my Second Edition Red Book). It can do multi-byte character sets in somke forms, but UTF-8 isn't one of them, and there's no FMapType that escapes to a PostScript procedure to permit arbitrary multi-byte encodings. (Well, not easily. You could define a show-like word that parses UTF-8 itself and invokes the PostScript primitives only after extracting a character code.) You'll have to preprocess the text into something compatible with one of the defined FMapType values (unless you're lucky enough to have a printer with something more modern than Level 2, I suppose, if such a thing exists). /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
