I downloaded the ghostscript 2.1 fonts from prep.ai.mit.edu last night. There's several fonts in there that appear to be type 1 (at least they say they are; I'm not a PostScript expert). It would be really nice to be able to use them, assuming that Adobe's PostScript can read ghostscript fonts. But there aren't any .afm or .bepf files with them. The NeXT documentation says that you don't have to have the bitmap fonts, but how would one go about generating the .afm files? NeXT doesn't supply a utility to generate them from the font files; is something like that available elsewhere, or do the .afm files really have to be built by hand? -- Jay Finger #include <stddisclaimer.h> finger@evax.utarl.edu finger@csun5.utarl.edu b645zai@utarlg.utarl.edu
