In my last email I explained how a default ucmap is installed in the pdfs produced by gropdf, so assuming the pdf viewer supports the pdf standard it should not require a change to the man macros you favour. I have tested using 'xpdf' as the viewer which pastes:- - − fi <== without ucmap - - fi <== with ucmap Of course, if the pdf is produced by using grops and ghostscript the result will be the same as using gropdf with no ucmap, i.e. '-' and '\-' will be pasted as different characters.
