[hylafax-users] Ghostscript 6.5 and Beta 3

[Jeff Herring <jeffh@sldsi.com>]

For some unknown reason I decided to upgrade my Ghostscript to 6.5
Now now matter what I do, I can't get "textfmt" to find the "Courier-Bold"
font. I suspect that the program is looking for an ".afm" file named 
Courier-Bold.afm.

Does anybody know if this is indeed true?

What would it take to get textfmt to use the fontmap file which contains 
the mapping
between common name(s) and the brutal .afm file names?

I have changed the textfmt calls in the typerules file to add the -F switch 
to point
to the fonts directory...No Good
I have added the appropriate line to the hyla.conf...No Good
I have copied (I think) the hyla supplied .afm files to the
/usr/share/ghostscripts/fonts directory...No Good

This is what I have now...
