GhostPCL fonts question

[Nancy Palmquist]

Jay,

I use this and this might help from the docs.

Set the environment variable PCLFONTSOURCE to point to where the fonts are.

You could also install the fonts and then point to the windows fonts 
directory.
BUT NOTE: you must use '/' instead of '\' in your directory and you MUST 
have a trailing slash
For example: set PCLFONTSOURCE=C:/ghostpcl/fonts/
