This works for Outline (Postscript Type1) +and Bitmap Fonts (Postscript Type3) mostly coming from MetaFont. +.P +\fBdvipsPreferOutline\fR +.br +Configures if \fBdvips\fR (by default) should prefer bitmap fonts or outline fonts +if both are available? Independend of this setting, outlines can be forced +by putting "p psfonts_t1.map" into a config file that dvips reads. Bitmaps +can be forced by putting "p psfonts_pk.map" into a config file. We provide +such config files which can be enabled via +\fBdvips\fR \fI-Poutline\fR ... resp. \fBdvips\fR \fI-Ppk\fR ... +.br +Valid settings for dvipsPreferOutline are \fItrue\fR / \fIfalse\fR. +.P +\fBLW35\fR +.br +Which fonts of the "Basic 35 Laserwriter Fonts" do you want to use and +how are the filenames chosen? Valid settings: +.br +URW: URW fonts with "vendor" filenames (e.g. n019064l.pfb) +.br +URWkb: URW fonts with "berry" filenames (e.g. uhvbo8ac.pfb) +.br +ADOBE: Adobe fonts with "vendor" filenames (e.g. hvnbo___.pfb) +.br +ADOBEkb: Adobe fonts with "berry" filenames (e.g. phvbo8an.pfb) +.P +\fBdvipsDownloadBase\fR +.br +Configures if \fBdvips\fR (by default) should download the standard 35 LaserWriter +fonts into the document (set \fItrue\fR) or should these fonts be used from the ps +interpreter / printer (set \fIfalse\fR). +.br +The user can override the default by specifying \fBdvips\fR \fI-Pdownload35\fR +... resp. \fBdvips\fR \fI-Pbuiltin35\fR ... to either download the LW35 fonts resp. use the +build-in fonts. +.br +Valid settings are \fItrue\fR / \fIfalse\fR. +.P +\fBpdftexDownloadBase14\fR +.br +Should \fBpdftex\fR download the base 14 pdf fonts? Since some configurations +(ps / pdf tools / printers) use bad default fonts, it is safer to download +the fonts. The pdf files will get bigger, though. +.br +Valid settings are \fItrue\fR (download the fonts) or \fIfalse\fR (don't +download the fonts). Adobe recomments to embed all fonts. +.P +\fBdvipdfmDownloadBase14\fR +.br +Should \fBdvipdfm\fR download the base 14 pdf fonts? Since some configurations +(ps / pdf tools / printers) use bad default fonts, it is safer to download +the fonts. The pdf files will get bigger, though. +.br +Valid settings are \fItrue\fR (download the fonts) or \fIfalse\fR (don't +download the fonts). +.P +\fBMap\fR +.br +Points to a map file, which describes a mapping from a font (called in the TeX +document) to the pfb file containing the Postscript code. +.br +Usage: \fBMap\fR filename.map +.P +\fBMixedMap\fR +.br +Similar to \fBMap\fR. It should be used when there is Type1 and a bitmap +implementation of the font (the latter mostly coming from MetaFont). These +entries will not be used in the default map of \fBdvips\fR if +\fBdvipsPreferOutline\fR is set to \fIfalse\fR. +.br +Usage: \fBMixedMap\fR filename.map +.P +The sign \fB#\fR precedes a comment. +.P +Not used Map files should be commented out using the string \fB#!\fR at the +beginning of the line. These entries can be (de-)activaed using \fBupdmap\fR +with the options \fI--enable\fR and \fI--disable\fR. +.SH "SPECIAL TO DEBIAN" +In Debian the file \fBupdmap.cfg\fR is a generated file sitting in /var. It is +generated by concatenating the *.cfg files from /etc/texmf/updmap.d/. These +files follow the syntax of updmap.cfg, but contain only parts of it. +.SH "AUTHOR" +This manual page was written by Hilmar Preusse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, for +the Debian GNU/Linux system by simply copying the comments from +\fBupdmap.cfg\fR and rewriting some of them. It may be used by other +distributions without contacting the author. Any mistakes or omissions in +the manual page are my fault; inquiries about or corrections to this manual +page should be directed to me (and not to the primary author). +.SH "SEE ALSO" +updmap(1), info page of dvips(1) +.SH "THANKS TO" +Frank K\(:uster, +an unknown Thomas. \ No newline at end of file _______________________________________________ Pkg-tetex-commits mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-tetex-commits
