Number lists are currently being worked on, but I havne't seen the problem
with the character formatting. I'm assuming you tried things like
underline, overline, strike, italic, font size and family?

This sounds like you were printing PostScript to a non-PostScript
printer, is the 4M+ a PostScript printer? It could be that something
like lpr is "converting" the PostScript into something for you, and it's
converted to something else in the process. You could try printing to a file,
and then tracking it down from there.
