<html><head><style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style></head><body><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><DIV>I've recently installed TeXLive in my computer. I am using Windows. I have made some changes to the standard configuration, with some changes in texmf.cnf. Everything works OK ((pdf)(e)TeX, mf, dvips, mktexlsr, fmtutil ...), but mktexpk does not. When a program needs to create a pk file (dviout or dvips) I get the message</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>mktexpk: mktexdir {!!c:/Archivos de programa/TeXLive/texmf}/fonts//pk/ljfour/public/cm/ failed.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If I add the option --destdir with an absolute path it works, so the problem is just in mktexdir. Did I touch something in texmf.cnf that I souldn't?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This brings me to another problem. if I enclose the argument of --destdir in double quotes, so that I can include spaces, mktexpk complains about missing arguments. I tried to replace the spaces with %20, but I get it literally in the path.<BR>Why to the programs' help do not tell what to do if your path contains spaces? It would help a lot!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><BR>Dvips loads cmr10 instead, the last error message is a Checksum mismatch and proceeds normaly. However, if I add the option -pp 1-20, in order to get a smaller log (just wanted to see the font creation commands), I get the message (the last line is the new one)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>dvips: Font xccmi8 not found, using cmr10 instead.<BR>dvips: Design size mismatch in font xccmi8<BR>dvips: Checksum mismatch in font xccmi8<BR>dvips: ! DVI file contains unexpected Omega command (253)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Is that a bug in dvips?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you for your help,<BR>Javier A.</DIV></div><br>
