Yes. 

We must be getting close; everything seems to be in place!

The log file has this line:

pdftex : needs map file: texnansi-bitstrea-charter.map

No error message; can I presume it was located and loaded?

Then, texnansi-bitstrea-charter.map has this line (taking just one of
the fonts as an example):

texnansi-raw-bchb8a CharterBT-Bold 4 < bchb8a.pfb texnansi.enc

And "kpsewhich bchb8a.pfb" shows:

/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bitstrea/charter/bchb8a.pfb

I've verified that the pfb is good by testing with the \font macro in
TeX.

Finally, at the bottom of the log, when other processing is finished:

Warning: pdfetex (file texnansi-raw-bchb8a): Font texnansi-raw-bchb8a at
600 not found

Does this happen when searching for a pfb? If so, does that mean it is
looking for texnansi-raw-bchb8a.pfb? Which doesn't exist.
But doesn't the map direct it to bchb8a.pfb? Or, as I said before, is it
searching for a bitmap font?
