keith 2000/11/27 10:00:45 PST Modified files: chinese Makefile Log: New port: enscript This port adds Chinese support to enscript, which means it can convert a BIG5/CNS plain text to a PS document, with all the fancy features provided by enscript. Unlike bg5ps, it can't manage GB yet, but it's easy to add. Another useful feature is with the ps2pdf and zh-ghostscript6, it is now possible to generate font-embedded Chinese pdf document from plain text on the fly, which also means platform-independent. Due to some problems in the CMap files provided by Adobe, Eten-B5-H and B5-H CMaps are unable to map correct ascii glyphs in TTFs. BIG5 users are suggested to use B5pc-H for the time being. Maybe it's time to re-organize ports/chinese/* font relationships.
