Dvips can't find the "rdavid" font, so it's trying to run metafont and create it from source. This obviously won't work, because the Culmus fonts don't have metafont sources... In order to find a font, dvips needs an entry for it in psfonts.map (canonically located at $TEXMF/dvips/config/psfonts.map). grep rdavid (or david) to see if you have an appropriate entry. If not, you should add the appropriate entries. How to do this is somewhat system-dependent. In teTeX you need to copy culmus.map to $TEXMF/dvips/config/ and then modify and run the updmap script in the same directory (see the comments inside the updmap file, they're rather clear). Other systems often follow a similar procedure. If you do have an appropriate entry in psfonts.map then your problem is that dvips can't find the fonts (.pfa files), usually because they're not in their canonical location or because the TeX name database is not updated. The canonical place for the fonts is $TEXMF/fonts/type1/culmus and the database is updated in teTeX with the program texhash (other systems have their own way). If your fonts are somewhere else you don't have to copy them, symlinks should work. Hope this works out, -Ron. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
