Currently, if ghostscript is not found, no pdf documentation is produced by
make. This is incorrect, the logic should be:-


gs=found ghostcript
urw=found urw

if !gs
    warn can't make html doc (don't make html doc)
    warn can't use pdfroff (don't make pdfmark.pdf - or change it to use
-Tpdf)
end

if !urw
    warn urw fonts not found U foundry not available to gropdf please install
    if !gs
        warn can't make pdf docs (don't make pdf docs)
        warn gropdf limited to 14 base fonts plus EURO and not able to embed 
fonts
with -P-e
    end
end

if gs or urw
    run pdf fonts check
end
