actually, psgreek grabs them out of the CM fonts, but we might fix that...
Lowercase greek seems to work fine (using CM fonts) with/without
psgreek.
Some tests reveal:
font style: w/psgreek w/o psgreek
times CM uppercase greek PS uppercase greek
ncs CM uppercase greek <blank, silent>
in the log file with the NCS/no psgreek, I get the message:
Missing character: There is no ^^@ in font pncr!
Missing character: There is no ^^A in font pncr!
Missing character: There is no ^^H in font pncr!
apparently the VF for ncs roman doesn't have the PS symbol greek letters
inserted, but the Times roman does. Some hackery is in order.
We should check out palatino, etc for similar omissions.
