Hello,

This post is not about a bug, but rather about a would-be feature.

I would like to use certain fonts that are supplied with Ghostscript,
but I only found the corresponding .pfa or .gsf files. I also
need their metrics, in the form of .afm files (so I can use them
in a TeX document, for example ; I have the afm2tfm processor).

Would it be difficult or costly to include those .afm in the ghostscript
fonts distribution ? Meanwhile, could anybody point me to an FTP site
from where they could be downloaded ? For the time being, I'm
particularly interested in the Utopia family .afm files...

Please answer by e-mail to melennec@stna7.stna.dgac.fr ;
I will post a summary if requested.

Thank you in advance,

Ronan
