Dear Reinhard,

I attach a pdf created from the following source by using XeTeX r38201.

%
% xelatex
%
\documentclass{article}
\pagestyle{empty}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont[Scale=4]{[utmr8a.pfb]} 
\begin{document}
Hello World

VALUE
\end{document}

Many thanks Reinhard, Werner Lemberg, and Jiang Jiang.
