Hi Achim, thanks so much for getting back to me! > What is the PostScript name of the glyph? You can find out, for > instance, with a font editor like fontforge.
Wow, fontforge is incredible! But I'm not sure how to get the "PostScript" name. "Glyph info" doesn't say anything interesting, so here is the hover text. I hope what you want is included. 8467 (0x2113) U+2113 "uni2113" SCRIPT SMALL L = mathematical symbol 'ell' = liter (traditional symbol) * despite its character name, this symbol is derived from a special italicized version of the small letter l * the SI recommended symbol for liter is 006C -> (mathematical script small l - 1D4C1) = <font> 006C latin small letter l >> I certainly don't understand what's going wrong.

Okay, I will try that, but I have to do it later since it needs to compile. Also, will this fix just the \ell, or will I need to manually make similar modifications for all characters? Speaking of that, assuming I only need to generate base-MinionPro-aX.enc, is it necessary to run makeall twice, as in: >> $ ./scripts/makeall --nodotlessj >> $ ./scripts/generate-glyph-list.sh >./scripts/glyph-list-2.030 >> $ ./scripts/makeall --verbose --nodotlessj >> --pack=./scripts/glyph-list-2.030 >> (previously there was a typo in the last line: "glyph-list.2.030") >> scripts/beautify-enc.sh: line 3: ed: command not found > > You need to install some Unix software like bash and ed. I think they > are included in cygwin, for instance. I installed ed, so hopefully now the beautify-enc script will work. Finally, must I worry about "C:\cygwin\usr\local\src\MinionPro\fontinst\adjust-oml.mtx ! Missing number, treated as zero." or is this safe to ignore if I only want the .enc files? Thank you so much for your help! After a while, I'll let you know what happens with the recompile. -Ben _______________________________________________ Minionpro-devel mailing list Minionpro-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/minionpro-devel
