I'll make the quiet assumption that this is just a matter of me not knowing how to do things. The following request for help still stands, though. I'm running GS 2.5.2 on a 80386 PC, and MS-DOS 5.0, and VGA color (though I don't think that will help any) I received a huge amount of fonts with Micrografx Designer, but 'cos of licensing problems, Helvetica couldn't be named helvetica, etc. Well, I figured I would set up aliases in the fontmap file, but ghostscript just gets confused when it tries to load up helvetica. I've tried every combo of... /Sans (filename); /Helvetica /Sans; ...or any other way of permuting those four entries. Is there something I'm missing? Or do I just have to go in and do some name-changing on the fonts? Thanks in advance. .....Matthew F.
