Hi Eric,
sorry for coming late, but I'm reading this list in digest mode and I've
been out for a few days.

Probably you have already installed the latest version of Ghostscript as
suggested from this list and I'm curious to know if this solves the problem
of accented characters. My opinion, after a few checks, is that the problem
is related to Fonts usage and how Ghostscript finds them. I know it is
possible to change this, kind of definition of where to find fonts, but need
to do some tests to find out how to do it.

The other thing that I wanted to say is about Distiller. You can use
Distiller under classic and its "watch folder" feature if you want to do so
just using my PS Writer virtual printer and directing ps files to the "In"
folder of the watched folder. Of course you shall have used fonts accessible
to Distiller.
