Re: How can I instruct dvips to use outline fonts instead of theCM ones?

[Mats Bengtsson]

Or if you just want to do it for one file, not as the default for
the full installation, just use the following flag to dvips:
dvips -Ppdf myfile.dvi

or maybe (depending on what fonts you use)

dvips -Ppdf -G0 myfile.dvi

The following works with standard teTeX-1.0. I don't know if this is
different in RedHat's version...

  cd `kpsewhich -expand-var='$TEXMFMAIN'`/dvips/config
  vi updmap # or use a different editor
# change type1_default=false - type1_default=true
  ./updmap

That's it. updmap is described in TETEXDOC, just
  texdoc TETEXDOC

This works quite fine, but the result is not
so good as with pdflatex...

What does the -G0 flag mean? I've not found it
in the man documentation.
