Re: [Gnome-print] Installing non standard fonts

You don't need to install fonts in Ghostscript to print them.
gnome-print will embed the font in the postscript file if it is not
built into the postscript printer (i.e. ghostscript).

I had these problems as well. Which version of gnome-print do you
have? The format you used is fontmap2, which is not supported in the
current (Ximian) version, which is 0.25. You also seem to have missed
a quote on the path of the pfb file.

Erlend.
