UnicodeRegular

UnicodeRegular

[Christopher G D Tipper]

I am trying to find a euro symbol for my work.

I have \def\euro{\uchar{32}{172}} [character € which I got from some XSL-FO literature I downloaded] and I use 
\defineXMLentity    [euro]          {\euro}
as I am transforming from XML.

What I then get is 
! Font \unicodefont=UnicodeRegular20 at 10.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file 
not found.

MikTeX has a comprehensive package manager,  and I have tried installing packages "uni" [billed as "The Universal Font"] and "universa" but no joy. Does anyone know where to get this font? Please don't tell me from Y&Y :-)

do you need unicode?

   \usesymbols[eur]

and then

   \euro or \symbol[euro]

you can add the usesymbol line to your local cont-sys.tex

Actually this just requires another font I don't have (eurose). If anyone has any exeprience with Unicode I would like the flexibility this provides, as the euro is just a sample case. btw I have searched CTAN for UnicodeRegular and eurose, and no hits. If anyone happens to know which package bundles either of these two fonts I'd appreciate it. Especially if you have it working in MiKTeX 2.4.

Thanks all.
