Hi Mikkel, I'm on holiday at the moment on an internet link which maxes out at about 5kb a second, so its difficult to access my home server. The file you need to alter is font/devpdf/Foundry.in. Line 68 says:- foundry|U|(gs):/opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts # the URW fonts delivered with ghostscript (may be different) Please identify where debian has installed the URW fonts and add the path with a colon after the existing path so it looks something like:- foundry|U|(gs):/opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts:/path/to/fonts # the URW fonts delivered with ghostscript (may be different) It would be very useful if you could report back the path which debian uses. Cheers Deri PS Apologies if this message appears twice.
