I had these problems with some fonts (not only Palatino, even Lucida) and couldn't create pdf... I tried to fix "everything" by deleting all TeX packages, doing a re-install of teTeX, deleting all ConTeXt files, re-installing the latest cont-tmf.zip To ensure that TeX can find all font files, I linked the font directories of Ghostscript and all other (/usr/share/fonts) to the appropriate section of texmf/fonts Symbolic links to the perl scripts (texexec etc.) are created in /usr/bin I edited the following files (after instructions of "how to install ConTeXt"): fmtutil.cnf (fmtutil --edit) pdftex.cfg (added context.map) cont-usr.tex cont-sys.tex (copy of ~.rme) texmf.cnf texexec.ini (copy of ~.rme) While "texexec --make" only produced errors like "texmf: format "config-de" not available" I tried several commands mentioned by Ed Cashin in an old mail: texhash (over and over...) texconfig init texconfig confall texlinks fmtutil --all updmap "texexec --make --alone" stops with an memory buffer overflow. What shall I do? (I'm proud to announce, that I can manage my mail on Linux now, but that's the singular positive news...) Groetjes! Hraban.
