[comp.fonts] Unix PS fonts question.

mraley.osbu_south@Xerox.COM (Michael C. Raley) (06/28/91)

I am in the process of understanding the role of the Post Script printer
in the unix environment.  Some of the questions I have are:

How are users geting Post Script fonts into the unix environment?
<who is selling Type 1 fonts to unix boxes?>

Once in the Unix environment how are users getting these fonts to their
Post Script printers.  

I know how to hack this method, I'm more interested in how an end user
achieves this.  <products, methods, etc...> 

If there are any products which do this <Frame Maker, Island etc.>
please let me know which products and how they do this.  Also, if you
have any ideas of a user friendly method, to achieve this goal, I would
be very interested in hearing it/them.  

Thank-you for your help and time.
