I'm learning how to use PostScript fonts with dvips through the use of virtual
fonts (to correct for the different locations of ligatures...I think). Anyways,
dvips works fine.  Unfortunately, xdvi doesn't support virtual fonts.  Anybody
modify xdvi to support virtual fonts?  Any other previewers support virtual
fonts?

I'm trying to preview some PostScript fonts for which I have bitmaps for screen
previewing.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
