Hi,

I have several .afm font files, which are used for 'enscript' (creating
a PostScript file with a specified font/size from plain ascii). Unfortunately,
not every afm font is supported by GhostScript (2.3, with GhostView 1.3).
Is there a way to convert/add them to GhostScript? If possible, can I
locate them in a different directory than the gs font dir?

Thanks in advance,
Marcel.
