Hi,
Apologies for bothering you all with yet another problem concerning
font installation. I've followed various of the discussions
concerning this topic, and tried to guess from these discussions how
to proceed, but I still can not get my Adobe Bembo fonts (Bembo 1,
Bembo 2, Bembo Expert ) properly installed. This is what I've done.
I downloaded the bembo package in xadobe from CTAN. And I ran afm2tfm
on the original afm files.
Then I made the following subdirectories in the local ~/Library/texmf tree:
-- /fonts/tfm/adobe/bembo , which contains the .tfm files I produced
>from the afm files, and the. tfm files from the CTAN bembo package
-- /fonts/type1/adobe/bembo , which contains the .pfb files
-- /fonts/vf/adobe.bembo , with the .vf files from the bembo package
I ran texhash to update the various (sub)trees and then tried to
typeset a small test file. Alas, with no succes. From what I can see
in the .log file dvips can't find a file named "pbbb8r", although
there is a pbbb8r.tfm, in the /fonts/tfm/adobe/bembo directory.
This is what I gess is the relavant message in the .log file:
>(/Users/martinst/Library/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/xbembo.sty) (./bembo_test.aux)

I'm probably overlooking something that has been mentioned already,
but I must confess that I find the whole procedure rather
complicated. So any suggestions as to what is wrong in my set-up
will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
