<div>I have some things to suggest you about the naming of font for map files.</div><div><br></div><div>The naming for "yu-osx" (e.g., YuMincho-Medium.otf or YuGothic-Bold.otf) works fine when we use dvipdfmx,</div>
<div>but does not when we use dvips + ps(postscript)- or -pdf-related applications or commands (e.g., Acrobat Distiller or ghostscript).</div><div><br></div><div>This is because these applications and command appear to solve the name of the font through its ps name.</div>
<div>Of course, I know that some additional settings are needed to let ghostscript handle Japanese fonts</div><div>and that preview.app can't still handle Japanese fonts or even some English fonts due to its bug.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you are working on OSX (and on Japanese), you can get the information on a given font by running:</div><div>$ mdls /PATH/TO/FONT.</div><div><br></div><div>More specifically, you can get its ps name by running:</div>
<div>$ mdls -name com_apple_ats_name_postscript /PATH/TO/FONT.</div><div><br></div><div>For example, ps names of YuMincho-Medium.otf and YuGothic-Bold.otf are YuMin-Medium and YuGo-Bold, respectively.</div><div>So, I would like you to use these names appended with ".otf" for map files under yu-osx directory.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Doing so should be important in the sense of unifying of the way of naming.</div><div><br></div><div>In this sense, I would like you to remove the prefix, "A-OTF-", from the names of maorisawa fonts, as well.</div>
<div><br></div><div>BTW, A-OTF-Jun101Pr6N-Light.otf is assigned in the map files under morisawa-pr6n directory.</div><div>But, as far as I know, Pr5, Pr6, or Pr6N is not prepared for this font.</div><div>We may need to another one, for example, ShinMgo.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Osamu Igarashi</div><div><br></div></div>
