Hi,
I just found out something weird with dvips:
When turning on the -Ppdf switch (pdf pseudo-printer), every instance of
'fi' in the TeX text (e.g. in 'traffic') gets replaced by the British Pound
sign in the resulting Postscript file. The DVI file is just fine.
I have no clue what might be causing this, but it is quite annoying as you
can imagine. Turned off the pdf optimilizations now :(
Thanks.
regards,
Remco.
