Following up on my own post, I should mention alternative ideas that I have. First is to include the UnicodeEncoding map with the string when invoking utf8show: /MyUnicode AdobeGlyphList makeunicode def MyUnicode (UTF8 String) utf8show Second is to have a global map, akin to currentpoint: AdobeGlyphList makeunicode setunicode (UTF8 String) utf8show Are these ideas better or worse than what I previously discussed? Thanks, David
