That helped a lot: xetex renders with the no-pdf switch. xdvipdfmx -v reports it's looking in pdftex.map (without mentioning a path) and gives the error. There are two files named pdftex.map on my system: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map The second is a symbolic link to a file named pdftex_dl14.map and both don't contain the necessary maps. I appended the map file to the end of both files and invoked texhash, but still no luck: > orm@varese:~/work/texte/sonstiges$ xdvipdfmx -v test02.xdv > <FONTMAP:pdftex.map><FONTMAP:cid-x.map>DVI Comment: XeTeX output > 2012.03.31:1908 > test02.xdv -> test02.pdf > [1<[email protected](TFM:fssb8r)(Encoding:8r.enc) > kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 > fssb8a.pfa > mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for fssb8a.pfa. > kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log. > > ** WARNING ** Could not locate a virtual/physical font for TFM "fssb8r". > ** WARNING ** >> This font is mapped to a physical font "fssb8a.pfa". > ** WARNING ** >> Please check if kpathsea library can find this font: > fssb8a.pfa > ** ERROR ** Cannot proceed without .vf or "physical" font for PDF output... > > Output file removed. > orm@varese:~/work/texte/sonstiges$ The line in my map file referring to the font: > fssb8r ScalaSans-Bold "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <fssb8a.pfa Did I miss something, or is texhash not updating properly for xdvipdfmx and do I have to use another command?
