all type1 fonts i have have that charmap. the truetype fonts, however,
only have

charmap 0: platform: 1, encoding: 0
charmap 1: platform: 3, encoding: 1

can someone tell me which one should i choose to process TeX
documents? (or what are they at all?) from the unclear tt docs i have
charmap 0 is mac and charmap 1 is windows, so probably i should use
charmap 1...

thanks!
