No drivers. You simply place the Type1 fonts in a directory, suffix them
by ".pfa" (for ASCII Type1) or ".pfb" (for binary Type1), generate fonts.dir
*MANUALLY* (use pixel-size of 0 and point-size of 0), and add this directory
to the font path by "xset +fp dir-name". The X-server must be X11R5 or X11R6.
