Sorry for the vagueness in my report.  Yes, this latter description  
is exactly what happens.  It proceeds happily for all pages but with  
"0x????]" or "0x??>" or "0x????????>" or "xxxxxxx/>" displayed  
instead of the expected glyphs or styled fonts.

Thanks, that's reassuring!  For x26c -dev xwin, the Russian text  
appears blank rather than as a mis-interpreted escape string.

So is the freetype library used for nicer-than-Hershey looking non- 
unicode fonts in the xwin dirver?

Is there any way to query the driver's unicode capability (or lack  
thereof)?

Thanks,
Dave
