Re: using fonts

[Wolfgang Zillig <zillig@hoki.ibp.fhg.de>]

with miktex there is a path C:\texmf\fonts\tfm\urw with some subfolders, but all 
of them are empty. For example Helvetica is located 
C:\texmf\fonts\tfm\adobe\helvetic and all files starting with "p".

I think that was the problem with selecting fonts on my system.
