Created attachment 1334637 [details] Simple eps file to illustrate the problem Description of problem: gv is not finding the standard postscript fonts like Times-Roman. The same is true of epstopdf (from texlive-epstopdf-bin) and gs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gv-3.7.4-14.fc27.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. gv circle.eps (with the attached eps file) Actual results: shows the circle and gives an invalid font error message and does not show the text "circle" which should be in the middle of the circle. Expected results: should show the circle with the text in the middle without an error message. Additional info: It works fine on Fedora 26 with: gv-3.7.4-12.fc26.x86_64 On Fedora 26, these fonts belong to urw-fonts. According to dnf whatprovides /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 the package urw-fonts still exists and still provides the directory where the fonts should be, but it can't be installed because of a conflict: dnf install urw-fonts gives: Package urw-base35-fonts-20170801-2.fc27.noarch is already installed, skipping. Manually copying the fonts from the Fedora 26 to the Fedora 27 system fixes the problem. So it seems to be a packaging issue.
