====== Installing a PostScript printer built-in font ======


There is a "standard" set of fonts that has appeared in every PostScript
printer since the second generation of the type.  These fonts
(8(nbsp)families of four text fonts each, and three special-purpose fonts)
are of course widely used, because of their simple availability.
The set consists of:

  * [[wpfr>Times_New_Roman|Times]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wpfr>Palatino]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wpfr>Century_Schoolbook|New Century Schoolbook]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wp>Bookman_(typeface)|Bookman]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wpfr>Helvetica]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wpfr>Avant_Garde_(police_d'écriture)|Avant Garde]] (4 fonts),
  * [[wpfr>Courier_(police_d'écriture)|Courier]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wp>Utopia_(typeface)|Utopia]] family (4 fonts),
  * [[wp>Zapf_Chancery|Zapf Chancery]] (1 font),
  * [[wp>Zapf_Dingbats|Zapf Dingbats]] (1 font),
  * [[wp>Symbol_(typeface)|Symbol]] (1 font).

All these fonts are supported, for LaTeX users, by the
[[ctanpkg>psnfss]] set of metrics and support files in the file
''lw35nfss.zip'' on CTAN.  Almost any remotely modern TeX
system will have some version of [[ctanpkg>psnfss]] installed, but
users should note that the most recent version has much improved
coverage of maths with ''Times'' (see package [[ctanpkg>mathptmx]])
and with ''Palatino'' (see package [[ctanpkg>mathpazo]], as well as
a more reliable set of font metrics.

The archive ''lw35nfss.zip'' is laid out according to the
TDS, so in principle, installation consists simply of
"unzipping" the file at the root of a ''texmf'' tree.

Documentation of the [[ctanpkg>psnfss]] bundle is provided in ''psnfss2e.pdf'' in the distribution.
