Well the situation with Notes has not changed much, except that I now get lots of err:psdrv:PSDRV_AFMGetCharMetrics: No whitespace found messages. I am unclear as to which files this is actually reading, but this is a new error and the metrics files have not changed.
The Java problem I had with the last drop (the problem with Callout not being initialised) is still there, so obviously the fix that was generated and which fixes the problem has not made it into the CVS.
The good news is that now Java works (if the patch is applied). Now the fonts display correctly. I am not sure what you have done guys, but it works a treat. Now for some more testing with some of the things I wanted to run but could not because of the Java support. Interestingly both the Sun and the IBM JREs now work, where last month with the fix the Sun one produced the wrong output but at least ran to completion, while the IBM one locked up somewhere. Now both run to completion properly.
