Subject: [9fans] troff fonts
Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2011 00:49:57 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTikfzpakAO1PW4oXnXxES5ZQa9gT8nJkcqaGOvwP@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm trying to use the UnivMath6 fonts
in order to get a Blackboard bold D
in troff, so I issue:

.fp 6 M6 UnivMath6

but when it comes to postscript, it
complains:

converting from troff to postscript...
/386/bin/aux/tr2post: <stdin>:76 :WARNING: cannot open file
/sys/lib/postscript/troff/UnivMath6
/386/bin/aux/tr2post: <stdin>:78 :FATAL: character <0x44> does not
have a Postscript font defined.
reading through postscript...
cannot find end of first line

It would be nice if the all the troff fonts
were defined for postscript use as well.
How can one make a map for PS to
use?


Thanks,
ak
