Which kind of poison doesn't matter? I successfully produced a file, however xv
spits out a few error messages, one of it says:

	Warning, unknown filed with tag 327 (0x147) ignored

And then prints out a huge "C88E", whether I feed it "(C884)" or "<43383845>". 

But maybe the problem is that I don't seem to have the right font? At least
"locate Ryumin" did not lead to any results. I have no idea about which fonts
are on this machine or how to find them, "apropos fonts" resulted in information
overflow, so if someone could point me to the right man-page ...

Does this strategy in theory allow me to control the size of the kanji? If not,
maybe I'll stick to the perl-strategy. I have never used TeX before and will try
to postpone this a little bit because of time limits...

Thanks a lot, Uli
