Well, an image can also be made in to a gs file, which in turn is still
a text file. What I am trying to say is that the fonts which appear
weird to gs are probably being converted to an image in the ps file.

Doug.
Somebody is preparing a document (in OOo) which must have those fonts.

If its for the record, I may as well get it straight (perhaps I am an

Hi, I use wfstt to get TTF available to X. I can see the fonts with
xlsfonts | grep ttf
but when I try for example

I get

Hi!
Sorry I didn't explain that properly. I meant, that I have xfstt serving
ttf fonts to X. This works fine with other apps (Nescape, Mozilla etc.),
so the problem is not there. konqueror and the other KDE2 apps however do
not see those fonts and do not offer them for selection.
Why?
Hi All!
Why is it that KDE2 apps don't offer any ttf-fonts supplied by the
xfstt-server? Other apps (Netscape Mozilla etc.) offer those fonts. Even
some other (PS Type1) fonts supplied via xfs are not an option. Again
why?? How can I convince those apps to accept the ttf fonts too?

I'd like to ask - is there any software for converting TrueType fonts to
