kens chrisl for the logs. [sound of head against wall] That problem you pointed me at last night seems to be *exactly* the problem the customer was having. It looks like the CIDFOnt does indeed have a Metrics array but no Metrics2, and so should be treated as horizontal, even though it has WMode == 1......09:05.09 
  Morning Robin_Watts09:05.18 
  Of course, now I have the problemthat the other PostScript file *doesn't* work, because it too is a CIDFont with Metrics and no Metrics2.09:16.41
