i dont know. but from /usr/local/share/examples/xpdf/xpdfrc: # These map the Base-14 fonts to the Type 1 fonts that ship with # ghostscript. You'll almost certainly want to use something like # this, but you'll need to adjust this to point to wherever # ghostscript is installed on your system. (But if the fonts are # installed in a "standard" location, xpdf will find them # automatically.) #displayFontT1 Times-Roman /usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts/n021003l.pfb <snip> but they are commented out by default. but i remember older times when they were not commented out. -f -- chinese proverb: yuck fou!
