When I open a PostScript file it's opened "(encoded by coding system =20 undecided-unix)" =96 as the *Help* buffer explains after invocation of = C-=20 u x =3D. This is incorrect, because, as PRML, The PostScript=AE Language =20 Reference manual, explains in a footnote near the end, on encodings: 3. The ISOLatin1Encoding encoding vector deviates from the ISO = 8859-1 =20 standard in one respect: the character at position 140 is quoteleft, whereas = the =20 ISO standard specifies grave. A PostScript program needing to conform exactly to the = ISO =20 standard should create a modified encoding vector with this entry changed. So what is displayed in the buffer as character: ` (96, #o140, #x60) is in reality, printed on some medium or on screen character: =91 (8216, #o20030, #x2018) or: instead of /grave the character /quoteleft is encoded here. IMO GNU Emacs should open a PostScript file in adobe-standard-=20 encoding, except it sees in the file that the font(s) used is (are) re-=20= encoded in ISOLatin1Encoding (which is *not* the same as ISO 8819-1), =20= CE Encoding, or whatever.
