being a postscript font virgin, can somone help me with what is
probably a simple problem for one who knows.

	troff doc.ms | lp
gives me:
	/386/bin/aux/tr2post: <stdin>:168 :WARNING: cannot find glyph, rune=0x20ac 
		stoken=<€> troff font LucidaSans

How do I add a euro symbol to LucidaSans?

Thanks,

-Steve

You don't.  You find a different PS font with a euro symbol,
and then you change the troff table for your troff font
to point at that PS font for the euro symbol.  If you look at
/sys/lib/postscript/troff/R you will see an example table.
