I'm badly in need of an answer...] Hello, everybody! Sorry to disturb you with my stupid font questions again, but it seems that I still haven't learned some things... I'm running TeXLive+ConTeXt, one system is in WindowXP and the other one is in Windows2000, but they now behave authentically (=have the same problem). After the usual fight with the fonts (some of the afm files are zipped in my TeXLive and need unzipping by hand and charter has wrong vendor name in the batch file, too, but I solved all these) my pos fonts almost work - i.e. they work if I just try to typeset something with very little formatting. However, the annoying part is that when I try to run my "real" file, which works perfectly on my work computer (TeXLive+WinNT), both my home computers complain Warning: pdfetex.exe (file ec-raw-uhvro8a): Font ec-raw-uhvro8a at 600 not found a) What is wrong? Something with Helvetica, but what and why? As some of the helvetic .afm files were gzipped, I had to run separate texfont installation and that seems to have worked fine, at least as far as I understand from the log: (lots of other uhvr entries removed) --- font identifier : NimbusSanL-ReguItal -> text -> tfm + vf generating raw tfm/vpl : ec-raw-uhvro8a (from uhvro8a) generating new vf : ec-uhvro8a (from ec-raw-uhvro8a) missing pfb file : uhvro8a.pfb --- generating : ls-r databases --- b) How to fix this problem? Any quick fix for the whole helvetica set? Or how to tell texfont that I want to create it exactly at 600? c) Would upgrading ConTeXt possibly help? I burned the TeXLive CD about 6 weeks back, but its contents seem to be from June. And/Or should I upgrade TexFont separately, anyone have any experience about this? d) When I find bugs in the combination TeXLive+ConTeXt+Windows, to whom should I report them? ConTeXt people, TeXLive people, both or nobody? Thank you for any help you can give, Mari Voipio _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ref.ntg.nl http://ref.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
