26 Xpdf is looking for fonts in places that are strange:
27
28
29 open("/usr/share/ghostscript/fonts/n022004l.pfb", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
30 open("/usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts/n022004l.pfb", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
31 open("/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/n022004l.pfb", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
32 open("/usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript/n022004l.pfb", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
33 open("/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n022004l.pfb", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
34 write(2, "Error: ", 7Error: ) = 7
35 write(2, "No display font for 'Courier-Bol"..., 34No display font for 'Courier-Bold') = 34
36
37
38 whereas the above font is actually in
39
40 /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/
41
42 (I've been sort of just ignoring this warning, since no pdfs I've used
43 have had problem displaying, despite those errors.)
