- Printing "AGaramond Italic" on a real Mac without "Font inclusion"
- causes Ghostscript to substitue this way:

- But printing "AGaramond Italic" with Executor makes Ghostscript
- looking for "AGaramond Italic" which is the MenuName, instead of
- "AGaramond-Italic" which is the Postscript FontName.

- Perhaps you will have to change Executor not to use the MenuName for
- printing and to use the postscript name instead. I dont know how to do
- this if only the MenuName is stored in the bitmapped fonts. How about
- not only dragging the bitmapped fonts to the hot band but also installing
- the MacOutlineFont (=printer font) for downloading to the printer.

-
- Postscript FontName: AGaramond-Italic
- Macintosh Menu Name: AGaramond Italic
- MacOutline FileName: AGarIta
- Windows/PC MenuName: AGaramond
- Windows/PC FileName: gdi_____.pfb
-
- To remap fonts you have to use two lines:
-
- /AGaramond Italic /AGaramond-Italic ;
- /AGaramond-Italic (gdi_____.pfb) ;
-
- Some examples:
-
- /Font-requested-for-printing /A-Different-Font ;
- /A-Different-Font (foo_____.pfb) ;
-
- /Helvetica-Narrow /Sans-Narrow ;
- /Sans-Narrow (hln_____.pfb) ;
-
- /Palatino-Roman /Palton-Roman ;
- /Palton-Roman (por_____.pfb) ;
-
- Please tell me if it worked for you, and if so I will write
- an entry for use in the FAQ.
