Viewing the PostScript produced by tr2post, turns out it uses the font LucidaSansUnicode25 to render the square, which means you need to have these fonts installed to $PLAN9/postscript/font and then call "psfonts" programs to embed the PostScript font. The "NOTICE" file at $PLAN9/postscript/font says: This directory is intended to contain the same files as in /sys/lib/postscript/font in a Plan 9 distribution, including the Lucida Sans Unicode font from B&H. The terms of the font license in Plan 9 do not permit us to distribute those files here. As a substitute for the Lucida Sans fonts, Plan 9 from User Space provides Luxi Sans, also by B&H but available under a more liberal license, and Deja Vu, a Unicode extension of the Bitstream Vera family of fonts. Luxi Sans is similar to Lucida Sans except that it has no Unicode support. Deja Vu does have good Unicode support. ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T87428730dcc006b0-M807ee20f66df7326f10ae748 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
