Helge,

The not embedded font files must be somehow the result of a missing PPD file 
information if I call 'texttops' for testing this way:

# CHARSET=utf-8 ~/cups-1.4.3/filter/texttops 1 rleigh myfile 1 "" ~/CUPS-UTF8.txt  > /tmp/ps
DEBUG: ppd = SetCommonOptions(num_options 0, options 0, 1) gives 0
DEBUG: ppd arg of WriteProlog() 0?
DEBUG: charset file /usr/local//share/cups/charsets/utf-8
DEBUG: NumFonts 15
DEBUG: Download fonts 2?
DEBUG: Download fonts ppd 0?
DEBUG: Download fonts ppd 0?

(I inserted some more DEBUG statements to see what it is missing).

I don't know what I should provide exactly as PPD information, even after reading for a 
while the docs :-(

Thanks
