- I would like to use more/different fonts than those supplied with the
- Ghostscript 2.52 distribution. Can I do this?? If so, how?
-
- 1. I read somewhere that putting a command similar to
- (c:\\psfonts\\fontfile) run
- at the start of my ghostscript file will load a font stored in "fontfile".
- Is this correct ?
-
- 2. I presume that I should purchase "Adobe Type 1" fonts?
-
- 3. Do I have to fiddle with the Fontmap file that comes with Ghostscript,
- and if so, do I have to recompile Ghostscript (I don't have the source)?
-
- 4. Is there anything else that I should know about doing this?
-
- Any help would be appreciated.
