[OS X TeX] Installing MathTime Pro fonts

[R. Vijay Krishna]

Hi all,

There have been some previous threads about this, for instance <http://www.tug.org/pipermail/macostex-archives/2009-March/039928.html 
 >, but seemingly without resolution.  I have essentially the same  
problem, but with a twist.  I recently purchased MTPro2 fonts,  
installed them in the appropriate place (without the obsolete map  
file).   I ran

  sudo mktexlsr
  sudo -H updmap-sys
  sudo -H updmap-sys --nohash --nomkmap --disable mtpro2.map
  sudo -H updmap-sys --enable Map mtpro2.map

and there were no errors.  I got the messages (among others)

-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  644748 Sep 29 11:04
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/ 
pdftex_dl14.map
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  643198 Sep 29 11:04
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/ 
pdftex_ndl14.map

and

updmap: Map file links or copies:

-> dvipdfm_dl14.map
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  14 Sep 29 11:04

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  15 Sep 29 11:04
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map
-> pdftex_dl14.map


So far so good.  Now, running a small file under pdfTeX, I get no  
output, with the following message:

(./MTPro2 LaTeX test.aux) [1{/Users/rvk/.texlive2008/texmf-var/fonts/ 
map/pdftex
/updmap/pdftex.map}] [2] [3] (./MTPro2 LaTeX test.aux)

)
!pdfTeX error: /usr/texbin/pdflatex (file mt2exf): Font mt2exf at 2400  
not found
!pdfTeX error: /usr/texbin/pdftex (file mt2syt): Font mt2syt at 600  
not found
  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!


I don't understand what is wrong.  But here's the fun part.  If I  
compile the same file under XeTeX, it compiles properly.  (Similarly,  
pdfLaTeX fails but XeLaTeX works as expected.  Also, TeX/LaTeX + dvips  
fails with the same message)

Any suggestions?  Possible diagnosis?

Thanks in advance
Vijay
