It may be automatically mirrored from there to other +Internet sites. + +If you don't have lptops installed (available in the same archive as +psposter), you can create an empty afmfonts.map file, and put it in a +directory pointed to by the AFMPATH environment variable. lptops is +very handy, and its installation will supply you with some additional +fonts for psposter. + +The files in the psposter distribution consist of: + +CHANGELOG Reverse time-ordered log of changes to psposter. + +README This file. + +Makefile UNIX Makefile for installing and uninstalling + psposter. + +TODO Record of things to do in future versions. + +bb.ps PostScript file to prepend to an EPS file for + determining the bounding box.
