* But the big news is that you can now define your own virtual fonts

   the 'define_font' callback.
Brilliant! That's simply great...
how about this one then

    f = fonts.tfm.read('ec-lmr10',area,size)
    if f then
        f.name = name
        f.type = 'virtual'
        f.fonts = {
            {'ec-lmr10' , size},
            {'ec-lmss10', size},
            {'ec-lmtt10', size}
        }
        for i,v in pairs(f.characters) do
            if i and v then
                local chr = string.char(i)
                if chr:find("[A-Z]") then
                    v.commands = {
                        {'special','pdf: 1 0 0 rg'},
                        {'font',2},
                        {'char',i},
                        {'special','pdf: 0 g'},
                    }
                elseif chr:find("[0-9]") then
                    v.commands = {
                        {'special','pdf: 0 0 1 rg'},
                        {'font',3},
                        {'char',i},
                        {'special','pdf: 0 g'},
                    }
                else
                    v.commands = {
                        {'font',1},
                        {'char',i},
