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
       application.  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.
