The font I have is from Macintosh ATM. I have moved the font data from the resource fork of the font file to a plain text file. The question I have concerns the eexec encrypted portion. This particular file contains binary data (not hexstring data) after the eexec call. Following the Type1 spec for decryption yields garbage. What I need to know is if there is any extra or different encryption of eexec portions on different platforms (i.e. are fonts aimed at Windows ATM different from fonts aimed at Mac ATM.. Are c1/c2/key constant accross *all* fonts/platforms? The ultimate goal of this exercise is to give GhostScript true outline fonts as opposed to the bitmap outlines which it currently uses. thanks in advance for any info.. -Paul Nakada -- Paul Nakada | Oracle Corporation | pnakada@oracle.com
