But the results are faulty. If I use the --show parameter I get about 13,000 lines of error messages! The key message is possibly the one that says Warning: pdfetex (file texnansi-raw-cul): Font texnansi-raw-cul at 600 not foun d. I tried to run texfonts.pl against Avantgar as is where is. I got an error message "no afm files found." Well, this particular font uses pfm files not afm. The pfm files are in the same directory as the pfb files. So I am confused. John Culleton
