OK, I followed thes instructions but I still can't seem to get it to work. As far as I can tell, everything looks good, files are in the right locations and the filename database is updated as it should. But running<br>
<br>
$ pdftex testfont<br>
<br>
causes the following error<br>
<br>
pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file padb8r): Font padb8r at 600 not found<br>
<br>
whereas<br>
<br>
$ tex testfont<br>
<br>
works fine.<br>

As you are using TeXLive 2007, I think updmap should update (or create) psfonts_t1.map in /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/ and pdftex_dl14.map in /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/, with information of your added fonts. Does it?<br>

After leaving this issue alone, somehow thinking it would go away byitself, I tried again tonite to get these two fonts (Frutiger and AGaramond) to play with my TeXLive install (Fedora10). The files referenced by Axel above are not created. Though updmap runs without complaints, I can't see that a corresponding entry is created in any of the different pdfonts files.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions as to what I may do to get these fonts to work with my TeXLive2007. (I've used them successfully prior to Te2007). Is is an option to re-install TeX??<br>

About the last question, I think uninstalling TL2007 and then reinstalling it would be the way. But you might get into trouble with dependencies ---you might be asked to uninstall first programs that depend on TL.<br>
<br>
Now ---by any chance would you have an invisible directory called something like .texlive2007 in your $HOME? If so, could you check if inside it there are some psfonts and pdftex map files?<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Finally! I started poking around inside the .texlive2007 directory and came across a permissions issue. running <br><br> $ chown -R $HOME/.texlive2007/* username <br><br>and then a subsequent <br><br>
