When sending a fax the error message shown below occurs. By and large the
defaults where used when flexfax was configured. 

/usr/contrib/lib/flexfax/textfmt: Unknown font "Courier-Bold".
Usage: /usr/contrib/lib/flexfax/textfmt [-1] [-2] [-B] [-c] [-D] [-f fontname]
[-m N] [-o #] [-p #] [-r] [-U] [-Ml=#,r=#,t=#,b=#] [-V #] files... >out.ps
Default options: -f Courier -1 -p 11bp -o 0
sendfax: Error converting data; command was "/usr/contrib/lib/flexfax/textfmt
-f Courier-Bold -p 11 -s default >/tmp/faxsnd017837 </tmp/test"


Anyone have a clue why the font is unknown? 
Is it a config problem? 
Is something not installed that should have been installed?
