I'm not a postscript programmer... but I'm not faint of heart either... > Read the debian-user thread that starts here: > http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2007/09/msg00098.html > > The options seem to be these: > 1: Use Evince and create an Evince-hints file that redirects the handwriting > font to another one. > 2: Use xpdf and create a custom xpdf-includes file.

It is not sensitive information, but I know better than to post attachments to mailing lists. Thanks!

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
