Yes, that does help. All those formats should in theory be readable, 
though for now I'm only working on type1 and ttf fonts. Does ATM Deluxe 
patch the font enumeration machinery so the outside-the-fonts-folder 
files show up in the API? If not we can have the client pass search 
paths to ghostscript directly.

That would be excellent. We could really use more support on the mac 
side of things.
