If this is the case, I could update altpdftex so that it uses odvips 
instead of dvips when it recognizes omega or lambda. It would then be 
possible to compile omega into pdf with the command

	altpdfomega

or lambda with the command

	altpdflambda

Can someone send me a *small* lambda or omega test file?
