Hey,
I googled but couldn't find an answer to this. There is a lq thread , but in that the poster's solution was to delete the fonts, which I don't want to do. Is there a better solution ?
The problem:
bash-3.1$ gs
ESP Ghostscript 815.04 (2007-03-14)

CRIT: rangecheck in get
Operand stack:
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/marlett.ttf 0
I had copied a lot of ttf files to my /usr/share/fonts/TTF/ directory. Thats when gs stopped working. I thought maybe moving the new fonts from /usr/share/fonts/TTF to ~/.fonts/ might help. But it didn't work either. gs still hangs even though there is marlett.ttf in the path mentioned.
I have run fc-cache twice or thrice as root as well as normal user. gs doesn't work (as root or as normal user).
gs -? gives ..
