Simply because I missed that option. Sorry about that. I just built a version with the ttfont option enable.

I am not very experienced in that area simply because I don't have any and couldn't even read russian texts. I depend on russian developers or users to tell me what needs to be done in Ghostscript to support those. Also I could not check if it worked. I am Cc'ing this mail to the debian-russian mailing list. Perhaps somebody over there can help. If there is anything I can do to improve the situation for russian users please let me know. > Please answer me - whether I can print Russian (and other) texts and how.

Pure XFree86 without window manager? That must be kind of unusable... Kind regards Torsten
