Subject: [9fans] troff connected problem, blanks instead of letters
Date: Thu,  4 Mar 2010 19:55:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a560a5d01003041055o456a4fcq869370a75f42243c@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

in plan9port I format my text with

9 pic graph.ms | 9 eqn | 9 troff -ms | 9 tr2post | 9 psfonts > graph.ps

My problem is that for some reason I can't typeset letters like \(dd,
\(dg, \(em, and others.
I usually get a blank space in the resulting postscript (but e.g.
instead of \(dd I got '!' if I remember it right).

Can you tell me what to do?
Thanks
Ruda
