You ask the wrong question (wrong interface). An X11 client does not see a Type1 font directly. It just sees an X11 font, and that can be up to 2^16 glyphs large. XFree86 can recode a Type1 font in any encoding into an X11 font in many encodings, including CP1252 and ISO10646-1. Markus -- Markus G.
