This document contains a description of the various font files that may be used
with FreeBSD and the syscons driver, X11, Ghostscript and Groff. Cookbook
examples are provided for switching the syscons display to 80x60 mode, and for using
type 1 fonts with the above application programs.
There are many sources of fonts available, and one might ask how they might be used
with FreeBSD. The answer can be found by carefully searching the documentation for the
component that one would like to use. This is very time consuming, so this tutorial is an
attempt to provide a shortcut for others who might be interested.
