Hi:

I use xfig on an RS/6000.  When using the NewCentuarySchlbk-bold (and
seveal other fonts) at (point) sizes greater than 34, xfig protests
and displays only size 34.  (Prints the right size, however.)  Bit of
a nuisance since X11 does NOT display what will be printed.  Any way
out for such large size fonts? 

Second, how does one convert a postscript file to eps file if one does
not know postscript programming?  I have read /mit/postscript/FAQ.
Unfortunately, I do not know how to use bounding box.  Is there a
program that would input PS and output EPS?  

Best. Varghese
