The Postscript folders have 2 types of file for each fontname: .afm and another without a suffix. The names also have uppercase letters, such as AndulBooBol (a.k.a. Andulka Book Bold). For the texfont script, it apparently needs the .afm files and .pfb files. Thus: 1) Are these non-suffixed files the .pfb files in question? If so, should I rename (add .pfb to) them before trying to install them? (I could convert the TTF files to .pfb?) 2) Should I take away the UpperCaseLettering as well? Rename them to something more Berry-like? In fact, I've tried these things with no success, but before I spell out the details of my failure I thought I would get this straight. Kind regards, David Wooten
