Ken / Ray,

You guys rock.  I've got it working, but I did have to take a few
steps to get it.

I installed the latest gs8.70 on my machine via the EXE installer for
windows.  Straight out of the box, this did not work.  I noticed that
there was no cidfmap file in the lib directory.  To correct this, I
downloaded the sources and extracted the "gs" folder into gs8.70.
After doing so, I had an gs8.70\gs folder that included a
"Resources\Init".  I tried setting the -l/gs/Resources/Init, but
gswin32.exe did not recognize the -l switch.

Next I tried to edit the cidfmap file in gs8.70\gs\lib but to no
avail.  I purposefully put a bad config in there and it didn't
complain so I realized it wasn't picking it up.  After that, I copied
the cidfmap file into the gs8.70\lib directory, and voila...it's
working now.

I'm curious as to why the installer seems to suck so much or what I
could have done to get it to work without having to go through all
these steps, but it's working by using the (Identity) 0 CIS
configuration.

Many thanks to the both of you not only for the solution but for your
quick responses to my problem.

Levi
