PS printers and software RIPs (namely, ghostscript as it is the best know and more widespread) have a limited repertoire of known fonts, the (in)famous "LaserWriter 35), be it in ROM or disk. Everything else must be downloaded; be it to the printer disk, RIP library directories and configured accordingly; or downloaded with the print job. The DESC file makes sure the latter happens with groff output. _______________________________________________ Groff mailing list Groff@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff
