+Instructions to install PostScript Font Libraries
+in Your System:
+The following files form this group:
+
+ 1) ps_0.fli
+ 2) ps_1.fli
+ 3) ps_2.fli
+ 4) ps_3.fli
+ 5) ps_4.fli
+ 6) ps_5.fli
+ 7) ps_h.fli
+ 8) fonttst1.tex , fonttst2.tex
+ 10) readme ( this file).
+
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+These library files have been generated from the .pk
+files available in the file
+\pub\archive\fonts\postscript\pk-files\psfonts.zip
+
+These files were converted from UNIX naming convention
+i.e. fontname.(res)pk to DOS naming convention
+i.e. fontname.pk.
+
+This enables a user to use 6 files instead of the numerous
+.pk files.
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+1) The following 6 files have been created, using the
+ betatest version of emtex FONTLIB program.
+ ( If you have any problems with the older version
+ please contact us at the email address mentioned below)
+
+ ps_0.fli,ps_1.fli,ps_2.fli,ps_3.fli,ps_4.fli,ps_5.fli,ps_h.fli.
+
+2) Move these files into the \texfonts directory where you
+ have stored your lj_*.fli files (or other printer type
+ library files).
+
+3) Modify the .cnf (or other appropriate .cnf file that
+ you are using) in the \emtex directory. The /pl line is
+ to be modified as shown in the sample lj.cnf here. (You
+ can copy this file into the \emtex directory if you are
+ using laserjet fonts). This is modified to use both the
+ laserjet and postscript fonts.( See first arrow line
+ in (8) below ). We have worked with p6l.cnf,p6m.cnf,p6h.cnf
+ as of now.
+
+4) Also modify newfonts.sub in the emtex directory with
+ the one given here and shown below in (10). Add the line
+ /ps=c:\emtex\newfonts.sub
+ in your .cnf file. ( This has already been done in the
+ lj.cnf file shown here). See second arrow line in (8) below.
+
+
+5) YOU ARE GOOD TO GO.
+
+6) EXAMPLES :
+ --------
+
+ i) FONTTST1.TEX - This gives the available postscript
+ fonts that can be used.
+ ii) FONTTST2.TEX- This gives postscript fonts at different
+ sizes. The sizes shown here are the ones that can exactly
+ be simulated.
+ Look into them for details. LaTeX them for checking your
+ installation.
+
+7) USAGE :
+ -----
+ a) Available Fonts:
+ ---------------
+
+ The available fonts are shown in the file fonttst1.tex.
+ The bracketed term shows the short form of these fonts to be used.
+
+ b) Point sizes available:
+ ---------------------
+
+ The point size can be defined by you. Look in the file
+ fonttst2.tex for its usage. Fonttst2.dvi shows the size. You
+ can use the following point size exactly (5,6,7,8,9,10,11,14,
+ 17,20,25). The previewer will however work with any point size
+ from 5 to 25, but will display only the above font sizes exactly
+ ( since the .pk files have been available only in the above sizes).
+ This has been done by using font substitution in the file newfonts.sub.
+ See section (10) below for the modifications in newfonts.sub
+ These point sizes are exact for 300DPI resolution. For resolutions
+ 180x180 DPI and 360x360 DPI appropriate substitutions have been made.
+
+ c) Driver prompts for unavailable resolution ?
+ -----------------------------------------
+
+ In this event the only choice is to specify a resolution closest
+ to the ones available ( 150,180,210,240,270,300,329,360,432,518,
+ 622,746).
+
+8) Modifications in the .cnf ( Example here uses lj.cnf). These
+ templates are for dvidrv 1.4s. The template for dvidrv 1.4d
+ or other versions is slightly different. ( You can rename it
+ as ps.cnf and change the batch files suitably ).
+
+ % lj.cnf (300x300 DPI using LJ fonts)
+ /pd={,$DVIDRVINPUT:}@i
+======> /pl=$DVIDRVFONTS:{lj_{0,h,1,2,3,4,5a,5b,sli},ps_{0,1,2,3,4,5,h}}
+ /pf={,{$DVIDRVFONTS:pixel{.lj,.ps}}\@Rrdpi\}@f{.pk,.pxl}
+ /pg={,$DVIDRVGRAPH:}{@Rrdpi\,}@PBf{@Ef,.msp,.pcx,.bmp}
+ /r=300
+ /rf=300
+ /fs=1
+ /fm=hplaser
+ /fd=2
+======> /ps=d:\emtex\newfonts.sub
+
+9) Printing exact fontsizes that are not defined above:
+ ---------------------------------------------------
+
+ However you can print the exact point sizes (other than the ones
+ shown above) as you have defined using the utility : DVIPS (to
+ create a .ps file from the .dvi file). Use GHOSTSCRIPT to print
+ your postscript file.
+
+
+10) Modifications in NEWFONTS.SUB.
+ ----------------------------
+
+ The font substitutions are currently working for 300X300 DPI
+ printer ( HP laserjet printer ), 360 x 360 DPI printer driver
+ and 180 x 180 DPI printer driver. These substitutions have
+ been done to work with the following .cnf files ( p6l.cnf ,
+ p6m.cnf & p6h.cnf and lj.cnf).
+
+ circle* * -> lcircle* *
+ %
+ % Substitution for 11pt-25pt at 300 x 300 DPI
