After adding some tracing calls, I compared the debugging output of
`pfa + afm' files and `gf + tfm' files, and I found out that the problem is
in the `ftcommon.c' file.
On line 243, it checks for the extension of the font file and proceeds
further, Now `type1' files have fixed extensions `pfa' or `pfb' so there is
no problem, but `gf' or `pk' files can have varied extensions and thus is
not invoking the `tfm' module, what do you suggest?

Thank you
