You mean, fonts that were in $TEXMFHOME with the map files in $TEXMFMAIN had no correct information? It would be interesting to see the difference between the two pdftex.map files. Did you have anything in ~/.texmf-config/? > As long as updmap called by a normal user can't write > /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R Oh, that is a bug. > I would except updmap called by root > would do the job for every user, i.e. creating a correct > /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map. Yes, it should do that unless the user has private configuration in TEXMFCONFIG. I don't know why it doesn't; that's why I asked about the differences between the two pdftex.map files. Can you find out whether specific lines are missing, or all the lines from one map file in /etc/texmf/map... or /etc/texmf/dvips? Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ.
