What happens if you generate your .pdf (which seems to include the fonts) then use a converter (there are several) to generate a ps from that? Are there any that don't use gs, that would use the fonts in the pdf file? This may sound stupid (but it may work): there's a pdf to html converter that turns each pdf page into a graphic that then a browser can display. Would this round-about method work if the image could then be turned into a ps? Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
