This is incorrect and causes the resulting files to be displayed incorrectly by the Acrobat Reader. To reproduce the problem, I use the following LaTeX-code: \documentclass{article} \pdfcompresslevel0 \font\myfont=psyr\relax \begin{document} \pagestyle{empty} \myfont SG \end{document} My pdftex.map is standard and contains the following line: psyr Symbol According to the pdftex manual, this should cause the /Flags entry of the font in the PDF-file to be set to 4 (which would be correct and which would be the Flags value of a Symbol font). However, on my system the resulting pdf file (which I attach) contains a /Flags entry of 34 (which is incorrect here and which is the Flags value of a serif standard font). I hope this report is reasonably clear... Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, Till Tantau ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sarovar.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=493&aid=809&group_id=106
