In addition, these fonts were created using a wrong +encoding vector and so the ToUnicode feature of PDF viewers does not +work properly when dealing with PDF files created with these fonts. To +overcome these problems, it was more than necessary to write down a proper +encoding vector and, consequently, to regenerate the basic CB fonts (i.e., +only the xxxx1000 fonts were generated). Clearly, this option makes things +a little bit difficult for people willing to write Greek since the old +font definition files expect various font sizes and not just one. Fortunately, +this problem disappears when the package type1ec is used.
