After getting both gs and gv to find and use the .PFB fonts on my
system I am now stumped by lpr. I had thought that lpr would use
ghostscripts font mechanism to resolve font references in a postscript
file, but apparently not. While both of the other utilities correctly
find and display the desired font, lpr defaults to some version of
courier (same thing others did before I found a fix.) Could anyone
explain this? Don't need much, but do need to be drop-kicked in the
right direction. Thanks in advance...
