I could of course easily make a script to generate entries in a Fontmap.ttf like

For Luxi maybe you're right Now I have the following ttt.ps toganm@earth:/tmp> cat ttt.ps /Verdana findfont 30 scalefont setfont 50 200 moveto (Selam yakışıklı oğlum dedi Anne) show showpage GS>(ttt.ps) run Can't find (or can't open) font file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/verdana.ttf . Can't find (or can't open) font file /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/Font/Verdana. Can't find (or can't open) font file Verdana. Substituting font Courier for Verdana. I have the following entry in the Fontmap.ttf /Verdana (/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/verdana.ttf );
No program I know of generates PostScript files which reference such fonts as /LuxiSerif. Of course your own programs could produce PostScript using that. But I'm afraid not many people are doing that
