Hi,
I'm having problems with dvips with a custom installed font (Adobe
Syntax) on my Ubuntu 8.10 system with tex-live.
xdvi displays the .dvi file fine. Running dvips gives me this:
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode ljfour --bdpi 600 --mag 1+120/600 --dpi 720 psxr8r
mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for psxr8r.
The relevant entry in my file syntax.map (residing in $texmf/fonts/map/fontname/) is:
psxr8r Syntax-Roman " TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont " <8r.enc <psxr8a.pfa
running 'updmap-sys --listmaps' shows me the file "syntax.map" is
included.
I installed all tfm, vf and type1 files in the correct locations (with
the correct canonisized names) and created a file
/etc/texmf/updmap.d/10local.cfg
with the following contents:
Map scala_sans.map
Map scala_serif.map
Map syntax.map
Then I ran 'texconfig rehash' and 'update-updmap'.
As I said, xdvi finds the font. Any ideas what I could check? The
other custom installed scala fonts seem to work fine.
