Background of my question is the need of Type 1 font files which cover most of the European Unicode scripts for the usage in CUPS. In some FAQ I read: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Font-HOWTO/ 9.2. Type 1 Fonts and Metafont 9.2.1. Dealing With Mac and Windows Formats Many foundries ship fonts with Windows and Mac users in mind. This can sometimes pose a problem. Typically, the ``Windows fonts'' are fairly easy to handle, because they are packed in a zip file. The only work to be done is converting the pfm file to and afm file (using pfm2afm).... That's why the question: > > Is 'pfm2afm' part of some port in /usr/ports?
