[pstricks] Combining PSTricks and Metapost

[David Arnold]

All,

I truly thought Herbert Voss (see below) had the solution. However,  
using the sequence:

1. latex --shell-escape fonttest.tex

2. dvips -o fonttest-pics.ps fonttest.dvi

3. ps2pdf -dAutoRotatePages=/None fonttest-pics.ps fonttest-pics.pdf

4. pdflatex tonttest.tex

on the adjusted file fonttest.tex (attached), the second step now  
produces:

This is dvips(k) 5.97 Copyright 2008 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com 
)
' TeX output 2009.08.29:0836' -> fonttest-pics.ps
dvips: Font lmsy10 used in file fonttest.1 is not in the mapping file.
dvips: Font rm-lmr12 used in file fonttest.1 is not in the mapping file.

My search for psfonts.map:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:optimath darnold$ kpsewhich psfonts.map
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map

The resulting pdf file is attached, including the perl script we use  
to compile. Our minus sign is still missing.

Acrobat reports these fonts in fonttest.pdf.
