NAME
       defoma-psfont-installer  -  register  fonts installed in a
       PostScript printer.

SYNOPSIS
       defoma-psfont-installer

DESCRIPTION
       defoma-psfont-installer  is  a  tool  to  register   fonts
       installed  in  a PostScript printer to Defoma, Debian Font
       Manager. Those who want to print a PostScript  file  using
       the  printer  fonts may want to have all the printer fonts
       appear in a PostScript font selection menu of an  applica-
       tion.   defoma-psfont-installer  helps registering printer
       fonts. It can parse PPD -- PostScript Printer  Description
       -- file and retrieve available printer font names from the
       file, then presumes the hints according  to  each  of  the
       font  name,  and creates a hintfile and register them.  It
       is strongly recommended to prepare a PPD file.

FILES
