Jan,

Does the document still typeset with the correct font? Can you send me, 
off list, a copy of a file which produces the error? It seems like you 
do not have the cm fd files which Will created. Have you downloaded the 
newly named typespec package Will created? It can be found at 
<http://www.mecheng.adelaide.edu.au/~will/tex/> and I think it includes 
osxcmr.fd, which is what I think you are missing.

And if you liked the last signature, how about this one?
