% This file (C)1994 by Heinz Wrobel, for Joan Thuesen

%
% This file is part of HWGPOST. Please check the documentation for
% information about legal issues, price, and distributability.
% Contact me at <heinz@hwg.muc.de> if no other address can be found.
%
% This is the definition file for the font search path for
% HWGPOST >=22.17. It should be located in (%ENVARC%HWGPOST), to be
% copied into (%ENV%HWGPOST) by the AmigaOS.
%
% You'll define a search for font files in "not really PostScript"
% notation. With a given font name <file>, the first string is the prefix
% and the second string the suffix used. The second string may be
% omitted for an empty filename suffix. Note that the two strings must be
% separated by a comma and on one line! This file is _not_ parsed as
% a PostScript program!
%
% The resulting filename tested will be
%
% <prefix><file><suffix>.
%
% Name aliasing is not supported currently.
%
% For (MyFont) with a Prefix of (%PSF%) and a suffix of (.fnt), this would
% result in a file name of (%PSF%MyFont.fnt). Once a file is found with
% that name, the search is stopped and the filename is used. Below are
% the standard search definitions.
%
% How does all of this work in detail? Say you have this file
% unmodified in (%ENV%HWGPOST) which means "ENV:HWGPOST" in AmigaOS
% notation. Then you run some PostScript file that tries to find
% "/Times-Roman" as font. If the interpreter cannot locate this font
% internally or via a specification in HWGPOSTResources, it will
% check (%ENV%HWGPOST/PATH_FONT). All the prefix/suffix combinations
% will be tried in order to access the file. For the first entry
% this would give these results:
%
% Prefix Suffix PostScript name AmigaOS name
%
% (%PSFONTS%) () (%PSFONTS%Times-Roman) "PSFONTS:Times-Roman"
%
% If the file in AmigaOS specification can be found, it will be
% loaded as the font in question.
