I'm still slighlty confused by the encoding files (texnansi, ec,..., in one case iso-8859-7 is used). Does it mean that it is impossible (or at least very complex or slow) to access more than 256 characters from a single font at once?
TeX as an old 8bit system isn't able to handle more than 256 chars per font. Only more modern siblings (like Omega/Aleph) are able to handle "Unicode size" fonts by itself. Grüßlis vom Hraban! --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://contextgarden.net
