First of all, what do you mean by PostScript fonts? Do you mean the printers that might be resident in a printer? If so, the PPD file for a particular model printer will tell you the names of the fonts that are allegedly resident in the printer. However, best practice dictates that you should never assume that any particular font is really available in a PostScript printer. To assure that you print with exactly what you format with on the host computer, you should download the font(s) you reference as part of the PostScript stream! - Dov
