Re: pdflatex and tipa fonts - works

[Reiner Wilhelms-Tricarico]

Dear Reinhard,

Thank you very much for your help. I am not sure what exactly 
I had to do in order to recreate the map files. At
any rate, I probably fixed the problem:

The file tipa.map already exists. It is in the distribution 
tar file and sits now in the directory /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config.

What I didn't realize was that the Makefile in the distribution
makes the implicit assumption that it is executed from the 
directory /usr/share/texmf (in the case of Redhat linux with the
tetex distribution). So all I had to do is go to the 
directory /usr/share/texmf
and execute the command mktexlsr. Further
in order to get all the fonts installed I had to
just run the sequence shown in the Makefile:
cd /usr/share/texmf/doc 
latex tipaman; bibtex tipaman; latex tipaman; latex tipaman

That did it and there are no more complaints from pdflatex.

I include here the Makefile that was included in the
distribution and that I had edited (PREFIX).



# Makefile for TIPA.
#
# You need to edit PREFIX.  (I did)


PREFIX=/usr/share/texmf 

TEXDIR=$(PREFIX)/tex/latex/tipa
FONTDIR=$(PREFIX)/fonts
MAPDIR=$(PREFIX)/dvips/config

all : 

install :
-mkdir $(TEXDIR)
chmod 755 $(TEXDIR)
-mkdir -p $(FONTDIR)/source/fkr/tipa
chmod 755 $(FONTDIR)/source/fkr $(FONTDIR)/source/fkr/tipa
-mkdir -p $(FONTDIR)/tfm/fkr/tipa
chmod 755 $(FONTDIR)/tfm/fkr $(FONTDIR)/tfm/fkr/tipa
-mkdir -p $(FONTDIR)/type1/fkr/tipa
chmod 755 $(FONTDIR)/type1/fkr $(FONTDIR)/type1/fkr/tipa
install -c -m 644 sty/*.sty sty/*.fd sty/*.def $(TEXDIR)
install -c -m 644 mf/*.mf mf/*.def mf/*.sh $(FONTDIR)/source/fkr/tipa
install -c -m 644 tfm/*.tfm $(FONTDIR)/tfm/fkr/tipa
install -c -m 644 type1/*.pfb $(FONTDIR)/type1/fkr/tipa
install -c -m 644 dvips/tipa.map $(MAPDIR)
-mktexlsr

man :
cd doc; latex tipaman; bibtex tipaman; latex tipaman; latex tipaman

clean :
(cd doc; rm -f *~ *.log *.aux *.dvi *.blg)
(cd sty; rm -f *~ *.log *.aux *.dvi *.blg)
(cd mf; rm -f *~ ti*gf ti*pk ti*.tfm ti*.log xi*gf xi*pk xi*.tfm xi*.log)

 You obviously edited psfonts.map to make them visible to LaTeX/dvips.
 But pdfTeX needs an entry in pdftex.map (in the same directory).  You
 might also want to edit ps2pk.map.
 
 A better way is to create a file tipa.map, edit the script
 texmf/dvips/config/updmap and recreate the map files.

 Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.

pdflatex and tipa fonts

[Reiner Wilhelms-Tricarico]

I installed the tipa fonts (symbols of the Internation Phonetic
Alphabet) from CTAN and it works fine for LaTeX but not for pdflatex.

I'm using Redhat 7.2 Linux, and there is of course a simple solution,
namely using latex followed by dvipdf. However, so far I have always
used pdflatex directly for its advantages and its convenience. 
It used to work for a lot of fonts and styles, so I wonder 
if there is something missing in the distribution
of the tipa. )

There may be step missing in the distribution:
tipa-1.1-beta.tar.gz
