> This patch enables the PostScript driver to read font metrics directly
> from TrueType font files with FreeType 2. It looks for font files in
> directories listed in the [TrueType Font Directories] section of the
> wine config file. For example:
>
> [TrueType Font Directories]
> "dir0" = "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
> "dir1" = "/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType"
> etc.
>
> It does not embed the fonts into its output. Ghostscript users can
> install their TrueType fonts in Ghostscript (with their Fontmap file or
> the GS_FONTPATH environment variable); users printing to PostScript
> printers will have to convert their fonts to Type 1 or Type 42 format
> and use an external program to add them to the print jobs.
Hello,
Why don't you add this text to documentation/printing?
