ps2fax(gs) cant find Courier font
I have Solaris 2.5.1 and HylaFAX 4.0pl1.
Upon invoking "sendfax -d1111 filename" I get:
---
Jul 16 10:45:34 rommel FaxQueuer[17321]: JOB 44 (...): CONVERT DOCUMENT: bin/ps2fax -o docq/doc44.cover;30 -r 98 -w 1728 -l 280 -m 4294967295 -1 docq/doc44.cover

Jul 16 10:45:35 rommel FaxQueuer[17259]: NOTIFY: bin/notify "doneq/q44" "no_formatter" ""

and running ps2fax manually produces:
---
Error: /invalidfont in findfont
Operand stack:
Helvetica-Bold 15924 --nostringval-- Helvetica-Bold Helvetica-Bold

The font metric file is in /usr/local/lib/ghostscript/fonts.
The Fontmap file suggested setting GS_LIB to include Solaris's Type1 and Type3
fonts.
setenv GS_LIB /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1:/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type3
and then running ps2fax again produces:
---
Error: /invalidfont in findfont
Operand stack:
Courier 23431 --nostringval-- Courier Courier
---
This makes no sense to me, since both Helvetica-Bold and Courier font files
are in /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/(Type1/afm,Type1/outline,Type1/prebuilt).
Why can't it find Courier there?
