Hello,
I just downloaded the current TeXLive version from
ftp.dante.de/pub/fptex/current. Installation on my Windows XP system
went very smoothly. No problems.
However, now I'm trying to use other fonts, like mathpazo, but am
experiencing problems: some of the symbols are left blank (both windvi
and dvips). Below is an example of a test document and its output, as
well as the complaints by windvi.
With mathtime, latex can't even typeset the document (mktexmf: empty or
non-existent rootfile! ! I can't find file `mtsyn', etc.)
Does anyone know what is wrong here? (And what I should do to solve the
problem.)
Thanks in advance.

Tex file:

\documentclass[10pt,twoside]{report}
\usepackage{mathpazo}
\begin{document}
Test document with mathpazo package. The text seems OK but formulas
\begin{equation}
f(x)=\sum_{i=-\infty}^{\infty}f_i\ h(x-i)
\end{equation}
not at all. Why is this?
\end{document}
