Quite. Note that sometimes, the fonts can be found under file names that
are largely more cryptic that those obtained from the Berry scheme...
Examples from gsfonts:
AvantGarde-Book /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/a010013l.pfb
Palatino-Roman /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/p052003l.pfb
Symbol /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/s050000l.pfb
-> haha, the first letter must be the initial of the family name!
Helvetica /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n019003l.pfb
Courier /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n022003l.pfb
Times-Roman /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n021003l.pfb
-> wrong ;-)
