Hi, my notes refer to the dsl 3.0.1 livecd. The antiword app is included, but if I try to run it to generate postscript, for example:
antiword -p legal foo.doc > foo.ps
I see the error message
I can not open your fontnames file for reading
I did some digging and the file its looking for is /usr/local/lib/siag/antiword/fontnames
I downloaded the antiword source tarball from the antiword webpage and copied antiword*/Resources/fontnames to /usr/local/lib/siag/antiword/fontnames and the error went away.
But it is a 4k file, so if its not included in the dsl livecd due to filesize, I was going to suggest a simple replacement file:
/usr/local/lib/siag/antiword/fontnames
Code Sample | # map all fonts to courier *, 0, 0, Courier, 0 *, 0, 1, Courier-Bold, 0 *, 1, 0, Courier-Oblique, 0 *, 1, 1, Courier-BoldOblique, 0 |
Its just a 134 character file, and allows bold and italics to be displayed in the postscript.
