Hi all, |

I'm having some issues with tetex. Are any of you using it without problems? |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Two issues I've identified are: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
1)Problems with the time package, which used postscript times fonts. The |
| 9 |
ligatures (fi, etc) are getting displayed wrong in xdvi. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
2) pdflatex seems to have trouble finding fonts, in particular: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Warning: pdflatex (file phvr8r): Font phvr8r at 720 not found |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I do have: |
| 16 |
/var/cache/fonts/pk/modeless/adobe/times/ptmr8r.600pk |
| 17 |
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/adobe/times/ptmr8rn.tfm |
| 18 |
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/adobe/times/ptmr8r.tfm |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
shouldn't the 720dpi one get generated automatically? Besides, I don't |
| 21 |
want bit mapped fonts in a pdf anyway. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
3) related to previous: pdflatex seems to be putting bit mapped fonts |
| 24 |
into the pdf rather than scalable fonts. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The strange thing is that I've discovered these issues on a document |
| 27 |
that was working just great with the tetex that came with Redhat7.2, |
| 28 |
which was pretty old! |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Anyone have any ideas? Maybe I should just install tetex by hand from |
| 31 |
source instead. |
