Yes, only for DVI files, but I don't see any of that about eliminating t1lib in the docs for evince. > I had to create a patch for evince to use the t1lib, and created > a bug about it in GNOME BZ. Here is the patch: > http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/evince/evince-0.4.0-t1lib-1.patch You're right. I just looked over the log and t1 was not included. I guess the default rendering of Type 1 fonts in DVI is pretty good on evince. I think I'll rebuild it with the patch and see if I notice any difference.
