Hello,
texfont doesn't work well on unix cause there are some pathnames that are
converted to lowercase. Since the default path for texlive is /opt/TeX
this is a very bad behaviour ...
Here is a patch that makes it work for me. Since I'm no Perl expert I
can't solve a last problem:
While processing type-tmf.dat each font yells about:
missing pfb file : utmri8a.pfb
but the file is there:
kpsewhich utmri8a.pfb
> /opt/TeX/texmf/fonts/type1/urw/times/utmri8a.pfb
I have started texfont in /opt/TeX/texmf-fonts.
But the installed tfm and vf files work o.k.
Uwe
