I am running SLP 9.0 x38 and I am having problems using ghostscript for anything. It can't find the "Helvetica, Times Roman" or any fonts.

I have re-installed:

ghostscript-fonts-other-7.07.1rc1-37 ghostview-1.5-67 ghostscript-x11-7.07.1rc1-37 ghostscript-library-7.07.1rc1-37 ghostscript-cjk-20021119-107 ghostscript-fonts-std-7.07.1rc1-37

Does anyone have a /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/Font directory? If so can you run:

rpm -q -f /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/Font/?

On some file in that directory and tell me what package I am missing?

See my recent post about a very similar problem. 1) Copy the type 1 fonts you want to use in /usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/Font and name them Courier, Helvetica, etc. or 2) Upgrade ghostscript. I got a slightly newer version using apt, and it does find the postscript fonts againwhere they have been all the time, in /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts/ When did you start seeing this problem? After installing a font with the font installer of kde 3.2 ? HTH, Matt
