Two sets of free fonts are supplied for Ghostscript: 

      	35 commercial-quality Type 1 basic PostScript fonts -- Times, Helvetica,
	Courier, Symbol, etc. -- contributed by URW++ Design and Development 
	Incorporated, of Hamburg, Germany (http://www.urwpp.de/). Fontmap names
	them all. 

	A miscellaneous set including Cyrillic, kana, and fonts derived from the
	free Hershey fonts, with improvements (such as adding accented characters)
	by Thomas Wolff. The Hershey-based fonts are quite different from
	traditional printer or display fonts; you can read about them in more
	detail in the documentation on Hershey fonts. 



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the fonts drived from the public domain Hershey fonts with improvements
by Thoms Wolff as stated by the Hershey.html file delivered with 
GNU Ghostscript:


USE RESTRICTION:
        This distribution of the Hershey Fonts may be used by anyone for
        any purpose, commercial or otherwise, providing that:
                1. The following acknowledgements must be distributed with
                        the font data:
                        - The Hershey Fonts were originally created by Dr.
                                A. V. Hershey while working at the U. S.
                                National Bureau of Standards.
                        - The format of the Font data in this distribution
                                was originally created by
                                        James Hurt
                                        Cognition, Inc.
                                        900 Technology Park Drive
                                        Billerica, MA 01821
                                        (mit-eddie!ci-dandelion!hurt)
                2. The font data in this distribution may be converted into
                        any other format *EXCEPT* the format distributed by
                        the U.S. NTIS (which organization holds the rights
                        to the distribution and use of the font data in that
                        particular format). Not that anybody would really
                        *want* to use their format... each point is described
                        in eight bytes as "xxx yyy:", where xxx and yyy are
                        the coordinate values as ASCII numbers.

Free Japanese (Kanji) fonts - 

Mr. Tetsurou Tanaka of the Department of Engineering, University of Tokyo, has created a set of free Kanji fonts available from 

      ftp://ftp.ipl.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/Font/

somewhat different names, is available at the Ghostscript site: 

      ftp://ftp.cs.wisc.edu/ghost/kanji/

Mr. Norio Katayama has done some work to make Ghostscript work well with Kanji fonts. An easy-to-install Kanji font for Ghostscript, with
installation instructions, is at 

      http://www.cit.ics.saitama-u.ac.jp/~far/howto/gs-ttf.html 

The same site has patches to make Ghostscript work with Japanese VF fonts, with documentation in both English and Japanese: 

      http://www.cit.ics.saitama-u.ac.jp/~far/howto/gs-vflib.html
