After I add the fonts to the fonts directory and mention them in Fontmap, I generate a bit of PostScript to test things with: tarheel# enscript -p - -fTimes-Roman24 /etc/printcap > /tmp/f enscript: 2 lines were wrapped because of length. [ 5 pages * 1 copy ] left in - Then I bring up the previewer: tarheel# ghostview /tmp/f and get the following error, before any of my document is visible: Error: /dictfull in --put-- Operand stack: 1 200 /Courier-Bold 0 480 /Times-Roman /Times-Roman -dicttype- -marktype- -dicttype- /Frutiger-UltraBlack (Frutiger-UltraBlack) Execution stack: operator_5ce8 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 1 --nostringval-- operator_b9dc --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- Dictionary stack: 337/401 6/200 17/50 1/2 What dictionary is filling up? Where do I increase its size? I tried some things in gs_*ps but I wasn't successful. -- "To use Fred Brooks' terminology, people keep handing me programs when I'm expecting programming products." -- Me ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Bartholomew - bb@math.ufl.edu - Univ. of Florida Dept. of Mathematics
