Re: [MiKTeX] The Dingbests fonts

[Edgar G. <ed...@ma...>]

It's good of you to bear with me.

I have a one line file containing

\Pisymbol{dingbest}{93} %thumbsup

which is supposed to produce a thumbs up.  The file compiles, it 
previews with dvi, but showing a right ], dvips works fine without 
complaint, and produces the same right ].

I had the dingbests working years ago, probably before I converted to 
miktex.  .........Edgar
