-------------------------------+--------------------------------
 When running ghostscript on simple files (example attached), I receive
 "Can't find (or can't open) font file" errors.

 This error occurs in dependent ghostscript tools (gv and xdvi for
 instance).

 Error message here:

 The lack of anything Times related in the font directory seems suspicious
 to me:
