installed on your LaTeX system. One of its purposes is to access the
standard postscript fonts that printers have built in, also known as
the thirty five base fonts. Part of psnfss PSNFSS is a set of font metrics
(the tfm-files) that allows TeX to use the fonts for typesetting (TeX
only knows about metrics, not outlines).
 
'''PSNFSS contains the following fonts:'''
<table style="width:100%; border:1px solid #DDDDDD;">
