Jure Spiler, The standard ANI PRO 1.3 fonts include full ASCII character sets conforming to English,Italian,Spanish,German, & French Extended ASCII codes. The standard 255 character ASCII is therefore directly supported. The postscript implementation in Ani Pro does not support extended ASCII sets only Standard ASCII code (i.e. – through character 126.). Since the program does not support extended ASCII in Postscript mode, the postscript fonts only contain characters through #126. I should know I designed all of the postscript fonts for the program by hand. If you're attempting to utilize extended characters in the Show'em POCO routine, then you have probably already discovered that that particular routine doesn't currently support extended sets. The fact that you've modified so many types of fonts leads me to believe that your characters aren't supported in standard extended ASCII. If you ever need specific font work done drop me a line. My company has been producing fonts for over 8 years and by employing a large number of typographers and calligraphers, we can custom produce type to meet any need. Over 30% of our sales are to clients outside of the U.S. We are currently in the process of bringing the ultimate font CD to market specifically for Autodesk Customers (The CD's are at a manufacturing house now). The CD contains over a thousand fonts in both Postscript and Bitmapped format specifically for Ani Pro and 3D Studio. The CD covers all of the standard font sets as well as a large number of unique ornate fonts specifically for 3D work. Not to mention a number of pre-beveled, one of a kind fonts for ornate beveling in Studio. If you have any specific questions leave e-mail and I'd be glad to address them. Paul
