However, the individual letters are the correct shape for the font. Each letter is far too small, though the spacing is oddly correct. Text is definitely being rendered incorrectly in parts of the document. Upon further investigation with a magnifying glass, the problem is different from what I initially thought. I came back to this problem after a delay. :-PĪny help would be greatly appreciated. I'm fairly sure my original one is the correct one, but I was getting desperate. I've tried several permutations of formatting in the Fontmap file, including: (Comic Sans MS) (comic.ttf) usr/share/ghostscript/fonts : /usr/share/fonts/Type1 : /usr/share/fonts usr/share/ghostscript/9.00/Resource/Font : usr/share/ghostscript/9.00/Resource/Init : "gs -h" shows that the font directory is, indeed, in the search path: hope 77$ gs -h Naturally, the line from the above that most concerns me is this one: Font -nostringval- ( aliased from ComicSansMS ) is being rendered with FAPI=FreeType >showpage, press to continue>showpage, press to continue<< This software comes with NO WARRANTY: see the file PUBLIC for details. There are no error messages: hope 78$ gs cards-01.pdfĬopyright (C) 2010 Artifex Software, Inc. Access times and strace show that the Fontmap file is being read, but the font file (comic.ttf) is not being accessed at all. The text comes out very poorly, and some of the smaller font sizes are rendered half the size they should be.

I've copied the comic.ttf file from my Windows7 box into my /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts directory, and I've created a Fontmap file in that same directory containing this line: /ComicSansMS (comic.ttf) Īs nearly as I can tell, the font is not being found despite this.
