Anyway, I can answer now ;) This is not a bug, I quote the Changelog : 2008-08-12 23:44:53.919723 Ray Johnston Remove 'Actual Fonts' references in the Fontmap that connected the URW FontName to an 8.3 filename that we no longer use. [Resource/Init/Fontmap.GS] On my Gentoo system gs-fonts-std-8.11 is installed with gs and the interpreter search the fonts in the system fonts after the ghostscript's Resources. Maybe the problem was on this step for NixOS ? Can you send the output of 'gs --help' for looking at the Search path configured for your version ? Artifex has incorporated the URW fonts directly in the Resources loaded in memory by gs, I've not included this fonts because I don't want to have more included package in the executable than necessary. Any comments about this option ? Thanks. Didier Link -- Didier Link <did...@famille-link.fr> Jabber : didier_l...@jabber.fr Clé GPG : 75BAC9EE
