Hi,
I was wondering if the "sun symbol" issue could have been solved by
anyone.
It's been a while that I try to make it work using hardware font for
postscript device (e.g. D. Fanning's ps_start, font=0). The solutions
for this kind of font available on google (e.g. ps_frag.pro, changing
the unicode in /itt/resources/fonts/, etc) are notvery satisfactory
because not quite user-friendly...
So, if a good solution has been found, please let me know! ;)
Cheers,
Bing

Possibly not helping you, but just noting that the sun symbol, planet
symbols, and various other symbols were added in IDL 8.2.
I know there are routines people have used, but I'll let people more
familiar with them tell you about their favorite.
