Russia, Krasnodar,
Ladies and Gentelmen,
I admire with your beautiful software. But to
my great regret I have any problems with using package gs.
I have probed all variants to print Russian (or
ather language) texts. It fail to.
According documentation, if to compile GNU
Ghostscript with option "ttfont" - it work with ttf fonts and unicode encoding.
I got source GNU Ghostscript and tried to apply this option. But "make" do not
knows such. It is not possible to use True Type fonts at all, Is not it? It
will be very fine to use free unicode True Type fonts to print non English
texts. Please help me to use its. And why is the Ghostscript
binary not compiled for True Type?
About Type1 fonts for printing non English texts. I
do not find in Internet free Type1 Russian koi8-r (and other encodings and
languages) fonts. Where can I do it? Besides, reading documentation and
handling various Type1 fonts and Ghostscript, there appeared suspictions
that the Ghostscript and Type1 fonts can be use only for printing English
texts.
Please answer me - whether I can print Russian (and
other) texts and how. If I must use only Type1 fonts - where I may get it. But
it wil be better to use True Type for me. Now my operation system is
Debian/Linux and pure Xfree86 (without any Gnome, Fvwm ...).
Now I have not much time to learn details of your
product. I very need to use it. I need your advice and help. I speak
English not very good, But I am not a dull pupil :-)
Yours Sincerely,
Anatole. |
