Sounds like a font problem.  Isn't the RedHat 8 and later default language =
set=20
to UTF-8 encoded by default?  Perhaps you could try settings your default=20
locale and see what happens.

Try

LANG=3Den_US
export LANG

and see if that helps.

Alos, if you google on the error I bet you come up with something.

Use ps2pdf as a workaround to create pdf files from the postscript output.
