[OS X TeX] cmr8 not in mapping file

All,

The attached file needs this: mps.tar.gz from Anthony Phan's page: http://www-math.univ-poitiers.fr/~phan/statsmac.html.



Now, it does compile. However, try this:

latex Untitled.tex
dvips Untitled

And you get this response:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro-2:chapter4 darnold$ dvips Untitled
This is dvips(k) 5.98 Copyright 2009 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2009.12.31:0948' -> Untitled.ps
dvips: Font cmr8 used in file Untitled.1 is not in the mapping file.
dvips: Font cmr10 used in file Untitled.1 is not in the mapping file.

This is with a brand new install of Mactex and the above was after I did this:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro-2:~ darnold$ rm -R ~/.texlive2009

I then tried Peter's suggestion:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro-2:chapter4 darnold$ updmap --listmaps | egrep -w '[cl]m.map'
updmap: This is updmap, version $Id: updmap 14402 2009-07-23 17:09:15Z karl $
updmap: using transcript file `/Users/darnold/.texlive2009/texmf-var/web2c/updmap.log'
MixedMap cm.map
Map lm.map

david-arnolds-macbook-pro-2:chapter4 darnold$ updmap-sys --listmaps | egrep -w '[cl]m.map'
updmap: This is updmap, version $Id: updmap 14402 2009-07-23 17:09:15Z karl $
updmap: no permissions for writing /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-var/web2c/updmap.log', so no transcript
MixedMap cm.map
Map lm.map

Both resulted in Map lm.map, so I ran Peter's commands:

	sudo updmap-sys --disable lm.map
	sudo updmap-sys --enable Map=lm.map

The result:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro-2:chapter4 darnold$ dvips Untitled
This is dvips(k) 5.98 Copyright 2009 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)
' TeX output 2009.12.31:0948' -> Untitled.ps
dvips: Font cmr8 used in file Untitled.1 is not in the mapping file.
dvips: Font cmr10 used in file Untitled.1 is not in the mapping file.

Please note that the problem is with Untitled.1, the metapost output.

Now, I looked in the file lm.map and there is no cmr8 in there, only a latin modern replacement. I think I need to run Peter's 	sudo updmap-sys --enable Map=lm.map, but on a different map, to get the old fashioned cm font.

D.


P.S. On the other hand, perhaps a metapost guru can help me adjust my Untitled.tex so that dvips will recognize the font used.
