Special characters in PostScript [message #63714]

Hi,

is it possible to print special charakters like umlaut vowels in a
simple way to postscript files?

I´ve read Davids article "How can I place a less-than-or-equal sign (≤)
in my PostScript output?". But that is to complicated for routine use.

Is there something like setting a variable at startup to "ISO 8859-1".
The worst thing I´d accept would be a string converter-function. Like

title=convert_special_chars('Viele Umlaute: üöüöäßß')
plot, TITLE=title

Does something like that exist? If not, I rather resign on these characters.

Best regards

Bernhard
