OK, now I can reply to my own question (after some RTFMing):

The answer is here, in the Fonts-HOWTO:

Subject: Hebrew fonts for GhostScript


Hi all,

I need to add fonts to GhostScript so I can create PS and PDF files
containing Hebrew characters (oh, and to print them, too). Anyone know
how to do this? (I am using Gentoo 1.2, KDE 3.0.3 and GS 7.05.5.)

Assuming I have Hebrew fonts available (e.g. Windows TT fonts), is there
a tool available to update the relevant files? (fontmap, fonts.dir and
fonts.scale--or do I just need to update fontmap?)

Or can I get GS to use the fonts just by setting thhe appropriate GS
environment variable?

TIA,
