Place the 4. Munhwa-Regular-KSC-EUC-H.gsf le and KSC-EUC-H CMap resource in

the font path (such as /usr/lib/ghostscript/fonts/).

Add a “fontmap” entry for Munhwa-Regular to the 5. Fontmap le:

% CID-Keyed font

% Korean(Adobe)

/Munhwa-Regular-KSC-EUC-H (Munhwa-Regular-KSC-EUC-H.gsf);

With all of these steps completed, you can simply use PostScript commands to use the 6.

CID-keyed font. What follows demonstrates how this Korean CID-keyed font can be

used in Ghostscript (user-entered commands are emboldened):

GS> /Munhwa-Regular-KSC-EUC-H findfont 100 scalefont setfont

Passing Characters to PostScript

ere is more than one method for passing characters to PostScript as an argument to

the show operator. e show operator is quite important because it is the only method to

display text using fonts. e ndfont and selectfont operators are used to indicate what

font to use for the characters passed to the show operator. When handling normal ASCII

text, the standard convention is to simply pass characters as is to the show operator using

parentheses, as illustrated by the following PostScript program:

%!

/Courier findfont 12 scalefont ...
