Hello All,

I just upgraded my entire TeX system. There are no traces of old files
anymore, everything is brandnew. I installed texlive 2004 (because I
had it on a DVD, thanks NTG!).

I got the latest ConText (Aug 31).

The first thing I had to do was to setup the proper encoding. For
example I had to specify this:

  \setupencoding[\s!default=8r] % or "ec", if you prefer
  \usetypescript[berry][\defaultencoding]

or ec encoding, works as well. It didn't work out of the box
unfortunately.

But this seems to get me the URW fonts, not the greatest fonts. It
seems the latest tex has something like updmap, whatever that
is. Using "updmap --edit" I changed the LW35 setting to ADOBEkb and now
I get the built-in fonts I believe. Is that correct?

But I still got complaints about this one:

  Warning: pdfetex (file ptmbi8a.pfb): cannot open Type 1 font file for reading
  Warning: pdfetex (file ptmri8a.pfb): cannot open Type 1 font file for reading
  Warning: pdfetex (file ptmr8a.pfb): cannot open Type 1 font file for reading
  Warning: pdfetex (file ptmb8a.pfb): cannot open Type 1 font file for reading

But document displays fine BTW.

I fixed that by changing another setting: setting pdftexDownloadBase14
to false.

But I'm a bit confused here. I thought Adobe had made those fonts
freely available, so shouldn't they be in my tex installation? Or is
this still an encoding issue, and should I use a different encoding in
order for pdfetex to find these four missing font files??
