I'm just trying a HylaFAX 4 install for the first time, on a Linux 2.0.29 (Caldera) system. Ghostscript is a stock install off the distribution CD. The binary package is hylafax-i386-linux-v4.0pl1-1.tar.gz recently fetched off the FTP site Everything installs and is running OK in terms of servers, modems, etc. I believe I can send postscript files OK. I am having a problem with sending textfiles. The default typerules file wants to run textfmt using font 'Courier-Bold'. This leads to the generation of an error message when running 'sendfax' on a plain-text file: No font metric information found for "Courier-Bold" ...and it aborts the send. When I change the typerules file to take out that font specification, textfmt complains that it can't find "Courier" but uses a fix-pitch font as default -- and the fax goes. (I haven't seen the result yet.) I've had a look in my ghostscript fonts directory, and all seems to be OK. While there is no file "Courier.afm" file, there is a "Fontmap" file which looks intended to convert between Postscript font names and actual filenames. Any help is appreciated.
