[fptex] pdflatex: cannot open font map file

[Frederic Darboux]

Thank you for this information.

Following your message, I found a message of Sebastian Ratz
(<http://www.mail-archive.com/tetex@informatik.uni-hannover.de/msg01177.html>)
saying:

I guess I got the same "problem" because fptex is included in the
TeXlive CD.
