On my gentoo laptop those fonts are installed in /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts and thus are available via fontconfig. :; fc-cat /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts|egrep Conden|cut -c-78 "n019043l.pfb" 0 "Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Regular:slant=0:weight=80:widt "n019044l.pfb" 0 "Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Bold:slant=0:weight=200:width= "n019063l.pfb" 0 "Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Regular Italic:slant=100:weigh "n019064l.pfb" 0 "Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Bold Italic:slant=100:weight=2 :; fc-match 'Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Regular' n019043l.pfb: "Nimbus Sans L Condensed" "Regular" :; fc-match 'Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Bold' n019044l.pfb: "Nimbus Sans L Condensed" "Bold" :; fc-match 'Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Regular Italic' n019063l.pfb: "Nimbus Sans L Condensed" "Regular Italic" :; fc-match 'Nimbus Sans L Condensed:style=Bold Italic' n019064l.pfb: "Nimbus Sans L Condensed" "Bold Italic" Any dist which fails to include the urw fonts in their default <dir/> list does need to be fixed. Gentoo does this by installing the fonts under /usr/share/fonts and configuring gs to look there. That said, ghostscript 8.62 moves the default install directory for their fonts to the Resource dir under /usr/share/ghostscript (which allows them to be seen w/o a Fontmap file if their file names match their PostScript names, among other benefits). It is important for every dist to ensure that fonts.conf includes the urw fonts no matter where they are installed. Also, either 30-metrics-aliases.conf or 30-urw-aliases.conf needs to add support to map Helvetica Narrow to Nimbus Sans L Condensed. And similarly for Arial Narrow. -JimC -- James Cloos <cloos@xxxxxxxxxxx> OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6 _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
