Stupid me.

I had the ghostscript fonts in the wrong directory.

The fonts should have been in the /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts directory.

As opposed to the /usr/share/ghostscript/5.03/fonts directory.

I guess I should have read the unixansi.mak file, which becomes the Makefile
for when you are compiling aladdin ghostscript with gcc.


All the Best
