Thanks for the fast reply!It looks promising.
(Although now we got an even better error - see below, please.)

"^#!\s*Map\s*" - what does that mean??

Steffen



C:\TeXLive\texmf-var\pdftex\config>updmap --enable Map=texnansi-adobe-agaramond.

map

using config file c:/TeXLive/texmf-var/web2c/updmap.cfg

type=Map,map=texnansi-adobe-agaramond.map

configReplace c:/TeXLive/texmf-var/web2c/updmap.cfg, ^#!\s*Map\s*texnansi-adobe-

agaramond.map, Map texnansi-adobe-agaramond.map

c:/TeXLive/texmf-var/web2c/updmap.cfg unchanged. Map files not recreated.

maybe it's no error at all. It might mean that the configReplace
function should replace some line starting (^) with no comment sign
(#!), then eventually blanks (\s*) the word Map (Map), maybe more blanks
(\s*) and the name of the map file (texansi...) by the line "Map
texnan...". updmap.pl says that the line will be appended to updmap.cfg,
if not found. Do you find the line "Map texnansi-adobe-agaramond.map" in
updmap.cfg? Then everything should be ok.

People interesting in using the latest updmap.pl file should probably request it
from me. It appears that the version distributed on TL2003 has not been
sufficiently tested. On the other hand, if you install the TL2003 upgrade
available from http://www.fptex.org/ , that should fix your problems. Else ask
me directly and I'll fix them.

Best,
