It is not possible to mix PostScript output and Hershey output
in the same string. You can, of course, write PostScript output
in one string, and Hershey output in another string, and put
both into the same PostScript file. So one could, in theory,
put a Hershey sun symbol inside a plot title, for example, if
you constructed it correctly. In practice, it is so onerous
do get the spacing and location correct, that I don't think
anyone has bothered to try it.

Cheers,

David
