Description:
------------
I keep getting an error when using ps_findfont() to load a font. The error indicates 'Helvetica.afm' cannot be found. I manage to get it to generate by moving the file in the script current directory, but it's not an acceptable solution in the context.

I tryed to use ps_set_parameter() with FontOutline and fileressource as used in pdflib and SearchPath as mentioned in pslib documentation. None seemed to have an effect.

Either I have no idea on how to load a font or the parameters are not checked.

I suppose this was due to an old version of pslib. The following script works like expected.

<?php
$ps = ps_new();
ps_set_parameter($ps, "FontAFM", "MyFont=/home/cvs/php/pecl/ps/examples/Dustismo.afm"); ps_set_parameter($ps, "FontOutline", "MyFont=/home/cvs/php/pecl/ps/examples/Dustismo.pfb"); if (!ps_open_file($ps, "bug-4194.ps")) {
  print "Cannot open PostScript file\n";
  exit;
}
$psfont = ps_findfont($ps, "MyFont", "", 1);
ps_begin_page($ps, 596, 842);
ps_setfont($ps, $psfont, 12.0);
ps_show_xy($ps, "test", 100, 100);
ps_end_page($ps);
ps_close($ps);
ps_delete($ps);
?>
