Re: font problem with the dia export in eps

[Thorsten Hehn <thorsten hehn gmx net>]

Hello,

I have Dia 0.95-1 (german) on my Win XP computer and I can observe the 
same issue as Renaud, i.e. there's only the possibility to choose .eps 
with "Pango-Latin-1" in export window. I appended a screenshot to proove 
it. Don't mind the german text, only have a look at the file extensions 
in parentheses. I can only find one single .eps entry... If anybody can 
see the .eps export with PostScript fonts (it would be "PostScript 
Schriften" in german), I think I've to consult my oculist ;-)

Best regards

Thorsten
