First: Thanks for replying!

Ok, I've installed 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20010806-2.1 and verfied that
it works.

I hadn't because I thought that some setup would reference the
pre-existing tfm files. But I've run it now, using bitstrea/charter as a
test. It creates these files under the fonts directory:

./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchb8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchbi8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchc8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchci8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchr8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchri8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-raw-bchb8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-raw-bchbi8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-raw-bchc8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-raw-bchci8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-raw-bchr8a.tfm
./tfm/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-raw-bchri8a.tfm
./vf/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchb8a.vf
./vf/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchbi8a.vf
./vf/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchc8a.vf
./vf/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchci8a.vf
./vf/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchr8a.vf
./vf/bitstrea/charter/texnansi-bchri8a.vf

...plus this:

pdftex/config/texnansi-bitstrea-charter.map

...and a test file:

texnansi-bitstrea-charter.tex

This last generates errors when I run it, variations on:

Warning: pdfetex (file texnansi-raw-bchri8a): Font texnansi-raw-bchri8a
at 600 
not found

Is it searching for a bitmap font? I must be missing some part of the
setup that identifies charter as a type1. Where do I look next?

Thanks again!
