<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have been using XeTeX for W32 since it came out and I am quite familiar with it by now. However, I installed it reacently on a new Intel-MacBook and I don't know how to configure xdv2pdf when installing legacy TeX fonts. A Xdv2pdf fails to find some some fonts when compiling a xdv to a pdf, that compiles nicely on W32 using xdvipdfmx. It bombards me with errors like this whe it encounters fonts like courier, mathpazo or Nimbu-sans:</FONT></P>
<P><I><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">font p</FONT><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">crr8t</FONT><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New"> not found in psfonts.map or host system; will substitute Helvetica glyphs</FONT></I>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am pussled by this, because psfonts.map contains only maping information for the 8r encoding (and not 8t), like</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">pcrr8r Courier " TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont " <8r.enc</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">And this above line is present.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">So my problem is, that I would like to use the fonts in psnfss and mathpazo. I copied all the tfm,map etc files that come along with the psnfss package to texmf.local. I entered 'sudo mktexlsr' on the terminal and 'sudo texhash' (which does the same-just to be sure). I added entries to updmap.cfg like 'Map psnfss.map' and typed 'updmap' on the terminal. Still-xdv2pdf is not able to find them. I also downloaded the newest xetex-source (revision 315) via SVN, compiled it (whithout any problemst hanks to the nice build- and install skripts)---problem still there. The last option I see is to compile xdvipdfmx and let this program make the pdfs-like on w32.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am out of ideas and would be very happy if one of you Mac-Cracks could help someone who is entirely new the Mac-world. </FONT></P>
