That the CM fonts are still coming in at 0KB just doesn't sound like
the right things are happening ...

You know something -- what's that MM doing down in your error message?
That's for Multiple Masters, and I see a whole section on the subject
in the Technical Addendum -- pp.23-24. Did something go wonky while
making the MM versions of the .tfm files? No, that's not it. You don't
need tfms for DVIPSONE ... But still ... have a look there, would you?

Well, the font files haven't changed, as far as I can tell ... And if
you've got font files on the CD which have actual contents, while the
copying to the machine is yielding empty files, then it's the
installation process that's not working ...

Listen. I'm out of ideas and time right now. My flailing is of a lower
calibre than usual, as well, I think ...

There's gotta be something going on, though, when you try to get the
files off the CD and onto your machine ...

Anyone out there got any ideas. On a Friday night? ;-)
