[PyX-devel] possible writet1 fallback solution?

[Andre W. <and...@ph...>]

Hi,

'just got the following idea: Couldn't we create a fallback solution
for people who can't compile writet1 by using the dvips font
inclusion? (We discussed the font inclusion recently, remember the
webpage http://www.tug.org/dvipsk/dvips_34.html.) I guess, this could
be a workaround for people who can't compile modules. But I'm not sure
what an effort it would be in terms of the support of font encodings.
It looks to me, that everything would be handled by dvips that way. We
would not even have to know about encodings, virtual fonts, etc., but
I might be wrong.

However, this topic shouldn't defer PyX 0.4 (especially if it's more
complicated). I'll hopefully get the graph documentation up-to-date
till Monday. Are there other release critical things left?
