Bug#357873: O: type1inst -- Install Adobe Type 1 fonts into X11 and Ghostscript
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I intend to orphan the type1inst package.
The package description is:
type1inst is a small perl script which generates the "fonts.scale"
file required by an X11 server to use any Type 1 PostScript fonts
which exist in a particular directory. It gathers this information
from the font files themselves, a task which previously was done by
hand. The script is also capable of generating the similar "Fontmap"
file used by ghostscript. It can also generate sample sheets for the
fonts.
.
The xutils package contains a utility called makepsres, which creates
output in a different format but which may nevertheless be more useful.
