Similar to Enscript fonts, except this time explicitly naming the fonts that come with Ghostscript, rather than relying on the substitution table.
- It takes a little bit more effort to get
enscript
to use the fonts, needing to generate thefont.map
file, and getenscript
to use it via theAFMPath
setting in.enscriptrc
. The procedure is given in the script. - No more justification problems, as seen with Helvetica
- We miss out on the glory of the Matrix font.
- Making images from Type 1 fonts is old school. Apparently the cool kids use Imagemagick, Pango, Unicode, and TTF and OTF fonts these days.
