Hello Bernhard -

When I set the fonttype to 42, the eps file gets much bigger, and the fonts
seem included. The file contains the same section as yours:
%!PS-TrueTypeFont-1.0-2.0
%%Title: Bitstream Vera Sans
%%Copyright: Copyright (c) 2003 by Bitstream, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
%%Creator: Converted from TrueType to type 42 by PPR

But still, my eps file doesn't contain the greek letter.
Strangely enough, when I read the epa file, there is a line that says
0.000000 3.703125 moveto
/chi glyphshow

Could it be that I have a ghostview problem? It works with the old mpl, but
maybe I need to upgrade? I am using version 4.4.

BTW, pdf works fine, it is only eps that gives me trouble.

Mark
