What did it take to convert the Volume 1 postscript file from
unprintable to printable? I believe Russ "added" the fonts to it, but
what commands were issued to do this?

Worked a charm (I needed a copy of the Alef paper).
Thanks a tonne.

This is the script I typically use: fontify <foo.ps >/tmp/a
It looks at the postscript headers to figure out which
fonts are needed.
g% cat /bin/fontify
#!/bin/rc
echo %!PS-Adobe-2.0
cat $* | aux/download -f -H/sys/lib/postscript/font -mfontmap -r/sys/lib/postscript/font/lw+
g%
I think for the Volume 1 conversion I used
/sys/doc/cleanps, which does approximately the same thing
but for a fixed set of needed fonts.
