> Hi Deri,

> 1.  Have you been able to retrieve this file (libgs.so.9.15-solaris10)?  I
need to free up some space in my Dropbox.

Yes, I have it tucked away, initial view is "its a lot of work". I was hoping
to discover type 1 files embedded, but I think it only contains sufficient
data to generate type 1c files, which is what gs uses when it subsets the type
1 fonts. So not worth pursueing, but see my thoughts in email to be written
next.

> 2.  Are you satisfied with the status quo regarding configuration and
testing of fonts used by gropdf?  I realize it's not perfect, but I think they
are _immensely_ improved over previous groff releases and we'll have happier
users.

It is "good enough". Also see my thoughts in forthcoming email.
