Tue 12 Apr 2022 12:46:41 AM UTC, comment #3: Fix expected in groff 1.23. Thanks for catching this, Bjarni. I had noticed the substitution of a sans serif (Helvetica?) y-with-dieresis in groff_char(7) but I had thought that was simply because Times didn't have it. Closing.	G. Branden Robinson <gbranden>
Mon 11 Apr 2022 10:41:00 PM UTC, comment #2: Fixed in commit 17b5fff1eece9161036e50017dc6ef387e8fad1b 2022-04-11 Deri James <deri@chuzzlewit.myzen.co.uk> [gropdf] fails to deal with 255th glyph in font. Savannah bug #62294 src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl: a pdf font can only contain 255 glyphs. The array which holds the glyph names also holds the start position (zero) as first element, it is legal for it to contain 256 elements, so truncate to 256 (not 255).	Deri James <deri>
