The *.tfm file may be misleading: for some non-free fonts, the *.tfm files are installed by the "tex-support package" together with *.fd and *.sty. However the actual font files (*pfa or similar) are not included but must be installed separately. > Please file a bug on trac.

Most fonts are contained in one package together with a supporting *.sty file, sot we only need to check these. Exceptions are the non-free fonts. We should check the "getnonfreefonts" tool for hints. Günter
