Let me stess it in other words: this ("Font ... not found") is not the
topic of thread. It is completely inrelated (IMHO) with vf font
problem (vf font leads to that "checksum" message). I took that font
because it has corresponding vf file.

The message "Font ... not found" is on terminal output while "checksum
mismatch" only in log file.

Ok, IIRC, if I want to use font with plain tex (pdftex engine) I have to
have TFM, and may be VF files, then MF source _or_ type1 font (pfb
file), if I have only type1 font, i.e. pfb+tfm[+vf] files, I must
instruct pdftex to use pfb file for corresponding tfm, this is what MAP
file do, e.g. file 'original-ams-cmr.map':
cmr10	CMR10	<cmr10.pfb
(I don't remember the purpose of second column), the first is TFM
file/font, the last one is type1 file (obviously). If there isn't such
entry for a font, pk for is generated from MF source. It MF source is
missing similar message is printed.
