Hi,
I have a problem that I fear is related to the eternal \usepackage{times}
+ dvips -Ppdf discussion; still, I can't find the solution in the
archives. To the point:
My document is typeset in Times (Roman, Bold, and Italic), with occasional
use of Helvetica Bold. I make a ps file using
$ dvips -Pgijspdf bell
This is dvips(k) 5.86 Copyright 1999 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2001.06.29:1820' -> bell.ps
<tex.pro><alt-rule.pro><texc.pro><8r.enc><texps.pro>. <cmsy10.pfb><cmr10.pfb>
<msam10.pfb><cmbsy10.pfb><cmmib10.pfb>[1]
where config.gijspdf is an slightly modified version of config.pdf,
commenting out the character shifting.
The problem is that the times and helvetica fonts are not embedded in the
ps file, while the cm and math fonts are. I need the fonts embedded,
because the ps is going to be distilled to pdf, with all the fonts
embedded as Type 1. The pdf now looks fine, but uses Windows font
substitution, unsuitable for professional (book)printing.
Apparently dvips does know how to include the .pfb's for the cmbsy, cmmib,
msam, etc., but not the normal text. I tried to extend the list of font
map files in config.pdf, but that did not work. I either misunderstand the
problem (very possible) or I include the wrong files.
Can anybody help me out?
Cheers,
Gijs
