Hello, I am having trouble typesetting Czech. This is the first time I actually tried a language with extensive punctuation. I have a set of Gill Sans CE that contains the proper glyphs. I have converted these to groff fonts as described in the mom docs. However I still end up with errors and mangled text. My typical command line looks like this: pdfroff -M. -F. -Tps -p -t -e -g -R -s -k -Dutf8 -mmymom -mpdfmark --report-progress --no-toc-relocation -dpaper=a4 -P-pa4 --pdf-output=rng.pdf rng.mom

This happens also with default groff fonts (no glyphs?). http://www.mail-archive.com/groff@gnu.org/msg05273.html would probably solve this for URW fonts (haven't tried yet, I want Gill Sans). My question is whether this is caused by incorrect font conversion or if the problem lies somewhere else. I would be very grateful for any hints. Petr
