Hi,
I process this input
.ps 20
This is a partly \f3bold\fP text.
This is a partly \f3böld\fP text.
.ds MyBLD \f3\\$*\fP
This is a partly \*[MyBLD bold] text.
This is a partly \*[MyBLD "böld"] text.
This is a partly \*[MyBLD böld] text.
with
groff -Tps -k test > test.ps
For all but the last line I get the expected output.
But the last line gives me
test:12: missing `]'
test:12: invalid base glyph `u00F6\fPld]' in composite glyph name
test:12: warning: can't find special character `'
The output of
preconf test
is (I show only the last lines):
This is a partly \*[MyBLD "b\[u00F6]ld"] text.
This is a partly \*[MyBLD b\[u00F6]ld] text.
It seems groff expands to b\[u00F6]\fPld instead of b\[u00F6]ld\fP.
Is this behaviour to be expected, or is it a bug in groff?
Kind regards,
ulrich
