- These messages are consistent with dvips being unable to open the file,
- either because the file does not exist, or because there are not enough
- file handles. Since you say the files do exist, try setting FILES=20
- or larger in config.sys.
- If dvips successfully opens a font library, it will tell you how many
- fonts it contains.
- The (rb) is the mode dvips used to open the file - in this case
- "read binary". This is correct.
