Problems remain: running LaTeX results in .dvi file with no text visible.
This is not surprising, given that I patched the pdftex config file only

produces the text in lucida, but with the ' replaced with S with a breve or

Will this file be over-written again if I run updmap? And this this the same
as updating "Is-R"?

Is the behaviour of the update process changeable by changing a configuration
file, or do I need to update a binary?

with thanks,
