I tried this, but it didnt change anything. I ended up checking the values of
the keys in the fontdict, and noticed that rather than "Times" I needed to
use "Times New Roman", for example. Maybe this is a change in my font
packages, or maybe my configuration was always out of whack and I hadnt
noticed because I was using usetex up until now, in which case I apologize
for noise.
