    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

    <para>PostScript supports various kinds of fonts. Type3 fonts are fonts
		  whose glyphs are created with a subset of regular PostScript commands.
			This function starts a new Type3 font embedded into the document which
			must be closed with <function>PS_end_font</function>. Each glyph is
			created with consecutive calls of <function>PS_end_glyph</function> and
			<function>PS_end_glyph</function>. Once the new font is created, it
			can be used like any other font loaded with
			<function>PS_findfont</function>. The passed floating point numbers
			are used to set the font matrix. <parameter>a</parameter> and
			<parameter>d</parameter> are usually set to 0.001. The remaining
			numbers can be left zero.</para>
		<para>Each call of <function>&funcname;</function> must be accompanied
		  by a call to <function>PS_end_pattern(3)</function>.</para>
		<para><function>&funcname;</function> has been introduced in version
		  0.4.0 of pslib.</para>

    <title>RETURN VALUE</title>
