Mr. Okhapkin:

Thank you for your quick reply about my question.

Yes, it is my impression that X server is responsible for the fonts. I guess
that I did not successfully make ghostscript.

I just quickly looked through the Makefile of ghostscript. I may need to
make he fonts specifically. This will be in my to-do list during the
weekend.

Thank you again. A short report will be post if I finally make ghostscript
work.

Wei Ku
