Hi Marian, yeah, KGhostscript is messing around with the original ghostscript files. I would say this is a very nasty bug. I ran into the same trap door. But as I compared the configuration with an original working system, I found out the following KGhostscript is clearing the Fontmap file in ghostscript's original library path; mainly: /usr/share/ghostscript/7.07/lib/Fontmap Simply, re-add the following content to the file: %! % See Fontmap.GS for the syntax of real Fontmap files. (/etc/fonts/Fontmap) .runlibfile (Fontmap.GS) .runlibfile That's it. Be sure you already have a Fontmap in /etc/fonts. If not, simply play around with KDE control center's font management. This one instructs the X's font server to create a new one. Hope this helps, Wolfram.
