Font-mapping files

A font-mapping file identifies the file names of the Type 1 outline fonts on the AIX or Linux system. The InfoPrintPostScript transform program requires at least one font-mapping file. InfoPrint installs the default font-mapping file, psfonts.map in the /usr/lpp/psf/ps directory during installation. If you have other Type 1 outline fonts installed on your system, you can create additional font-mapping files to define their names.
