I'm not sure where to put this, but since the Postscript forum is pretty dead, I figured I'd try here.

I have a program that creates postscript files and it has an option to enter the name of the font to be used. Where can I find a list of the fonts that I can use? So far I've found that 'Courier', 'Hershey', 'Times-Roman', and 'Courier-Bold' all work, but I'm sure there are more. I know this is dependent on which fonts I have installed, but I can't figure out what those are.

Thanks
