I hope this is the right place for this.  It's more a troff question
than a postscript question, but it's about postscript fonts, as it
happens, so I'll include comp.lang.postscript and beg your pardon...

I've gotten access to A large typeface library, and look 
greedily forward to using them with troff.  Unfortunately, troff
allows you a 1 or 2 character designation.  This implies 
a large number of mappings, even if I exclude most of the weights.

What do people do in this situation: is there an already-existing 
list that looks like this:

Be	Bembo
H	Helvetica
Lt	London Text
NC	New Century Schoolbook



...and so on?  It seems to me I saw such a paper somewhere, but where?
