Partial font downloading utility.
SYSTEMS: Unix, VMS, IBM-PC/MS-DOS.
NEEDED: GhostScript interpreter: GS 2.6.1 (recomended) or GS 3.12
This tool realizes partial downloading of the ATM compatible Type 1 fonts
required in the specified PostScript file.
This tool is combination of
- the psfstat.ps PostScript script
which collects information about font using
- and SubFont program which extracts from source fonts subfonts which
contains only required characters.
This approach, in comparison with well known DVIPSONE partial font
downloading facility, has follow advantages:
1. That can be applied in many systems which generates PostScript output.
So, psfstat.ps script was tested with:
a. DVIPS output;
b. Frame Output;
c. MS Windows PostScript driver output.
2. That prepare not only text fonts but also fonts used in inserted
pictures.
However, this approach requires a lot of CPU time to complete scanning
of the PostScript file.
==== USING, for example with DVIPS. ====
Tune DVIPS font maps such that ATM compatible Type 1 fonts
will not be copied into output PostScript file.
So, you must use for font mapping cmfonts.ref file which contains lines like:
cmr10 cmr10
but not cmfonts.map file which contains lines like:
cmr10 cmr10 <cmr10.pfb
In correct case, After command
dvips -P??? foo
you will have PostScript file without fonts, which you can print by command
fload foo.ps | lpr
