[NTG-context] texfont fails for font Cataneo BoldSwash
Hello, when I install the font Cataneo (from a Corel CD) with texfont, 4 of the 5 font files (Light, Regular, RegularSwash, Bold) proceed correctly, but on the 4th (BoldSwash) texfont produces an error message an creates empty files. I'm using texlive 2007 from the Debian Lenny GNU/Linux distribution. texmfstart texfont --fontroot=debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf --vendor=bitstrea --collection=cataneo --encoding=texnansi --makepath --install TeXFont 2.2.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 2000-2004 encoding vector : texnansi vendor name : bitstrea source path : . font collection : cataneo texmf font root : debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf map file name : texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map source path : . processing files : all on afm path locating afm files : using pattern ./*.afm locating afm files : using pattern * copying files : afm copying : CataneoBT-Bold.afm copying : CataneoBT-BoldSwash.afm copying : CataneoBT-Light.afm copying : CataneoBT-Regular.afm copying : CataneoBT-RegularSwash.afm copying files : pfb copying : CataneoBT-Bold.pfb copying : CataneoBT-BoldSwash.pfb copying : CataneoBT-Light.pfb copying : CataneoBT-Regular.pfb copying : CataneoBT-RegularSwash.pfb no map file at : debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map no map file at : debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map no map file at : debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvipdfm/context/texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map font identifier : CataneoBT-Bold -> text -> tfm + vf generating raw tfm/vpl : texnansi-raw-CataneoBT-Bold (from CataneoBT-Bold) generating new vf : texnansi-CataneoBT-Bold (from texnansi-CataneoBT-Bold) B expected: ! syntax error C 83 ; WX 495 ; N S ; B-78 -137 458 637 ; ^ font identifier : -> text -> tfm + vf generating raw tfm/vpl : texnansi-raw-CataneoBT-BoldSwash (from CataneoBT-BoldSwash) B expected: ! syntax error C 83 ; WX 495 ; N S ; B-78 -137 458 637 ; ^ generating new vf : texnansi-CataneoBT-BoldSwash (from texnansi-CataneoBT-BoldSwash) font identifier : CataneoBT-Light -> text -> tfm + vf generating raw tfm/vpl : texnansi-raw-CataneoBT-Light (from CataneoBT-Light) generating new vf : texnansi-CataneoBT-Light (from texnansi-CataneoBT-Light) font identifier : CataneoBT-Regular -> text -> tfm + vf generating raw tfm/vpl : texnansi-raw-CataneoBT-Regular (from CataneoBT-Regular) generating new vf : texnansi-CataneoBT-Regular (from texnansi-CataneoBT-Regular) font identifier : CataneoBT-RegularSwash -> text -> tfm + vf generating raw tfm/vpl : texnansi-raw-CataneoBT-RegularSwash (from CataneoBT-RegularSwash) generating new vf : texnansi-CataneoBT-RegularSwash (from texnansi-CataneoBT-RegularSwash) updating map file : texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map (for pdftex) updating map file : texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map (for dvipdfm) updating map file : texnansi-bitstrea-cataneo.map (for dvips) generating : ls-r databases mktexlsr: Updating /home/andreas/LaTeX/cataneo/debian/font-cataneo/usr/share/texmf/ls-R... mktexlsr: Done.

Unfortunatley there is still an error message: kern char not found KPX AT -46 ^ Is this another error in the AFM file?

I suspect it needs a space between A and T.

I suspect it needs a space between A and T. thanks again. Inserting a space between A and T fits to all the other entries and eliminates the error message. I haven't seen a professional font made so grubby yet.
