I think I found the problem: I installed the fonts locally with type1inst and I got this error message: ________________________________________________________ bash-2.05b$ type1inst type1inst Version 0.6.1 (11th February 1998) Copyright (C) 1996-1998 James Macnicol (james.macnicol@mailexcite.com) There are a total of 35 PostScript fonts in this directory [10] [20] [30] ------------------------------------------------------- 35 fonts found 35 were standard PostScript fonts ------------------------------------------------------- While reading the existing Fontmap file I saw 49 entries which mentioned a filename which now does not exist. Most likely you removed or renamed the file. I ignored these entries. ------------------------------------------------------- There were 315 lines in Fontmap which I couldn't understand These were ignored. ------------------------------------------------------- Part of those 49 entries that got dropped are the aliases for the fonts Helvetica, Times and Courier. In the type1inst.log I see: Couldn't understand line : % Aliases Couldn't understand line : /Times-Roman /NimbusRomNo9L-Regu ; Couldn't understand line : /Times-Italic /NimbusRomNo9L-ReguItal ; Couldn't understand line : /Times-Bold /NimbusRomNo9L-Medi ; Couldn't understand line : /Times-BoldItalic /NimbusRomNo9L-MediItal ; So I looked at the original Fontmap and see that it has not changed in years: bash-2.05b$ ll Fontmap -rw-r--r-- 1 bsd bsd - 13604 Oct 30 1997 Fontmap So something is wrong with type1inst (which IIRC) is a PERL script or something is wrong with the ghostscript-gnu port? This would never be noticed on the ports install because the port invokes type1inst with no logging of errors and it prints out no errors, while it is running. -- Kind regards, Jonathan
