HOWTO: Printing greek documents - greek postscript support

[ktsaou]

This little shell script:

http://www.tsaousis.gr/various/fixgreekps.sh

Will convert your corefonts to type1 and install them in /usr/share/fonts/corefonts.type1.
It will replace the HTMLDOC supplied fonts with the converted ones, so that HTMLDOC will work for greek documents (both PDF and PS).
It will also modify the Fontmap of your ghostscript, so that by default Greek printing with ghostscript will work.

To use it, first emerge:

• corefonts
  ttf2pt1
  htmldoc
  ghostscript

Then run:

Code: Select all

sh fixgreekps.sh

And now try to preview a greek web page in Mozilla. It will work as printing it will work too.
