formerly both "foo.pfb" and "!foo.pfb" were possible, but they had different meaning: "foo.pfb" means "read the font file to extract all parameters but do not embed it" while "!foo.pfb" means "don't read anything", and the font descriptor is not created.
I think we should drop "!foo.pfb".
you already had dropped it, only i put it in again, and incompletely, only the scanning. I really shouldn't have done this, sorry. Hope it's of limited trouble. Now that 1.20b is out, what quickly can be done is removing the '!' case from the manual. Regards, Hartmut P. S. i shuffled the code a bit in this area of mapfile.c to separate .enc and fontfile flags handling, hope that this was ok.
