However, I continue to get the same error. In fact, I upgraded from MacTeX 2009, thinking that a newer version of tftopl, the program pkfix-helper invokes in order to process the TFM files, might solve the problem. I should note that I am running Mac OS 10.6.4, and my TeX installation is MacTeX 2010. : No TFM files were processed successfully The following is the output that I receive at the Terminal when I try to process a file: However, I have not been successful here either. The font outline data is stored in a file with type LWFN and is analogous to. Type 1 Fonts on a Mac: Two files are required to use a Type 1 font on the Mac. The PFM file contains metric data including kerning. The PFB file contains the actual font outline data. Warning: dvips version 5.58 does not generate the required font comments!Īfter this I tried using another script, pkfix-helper, as a way of cleaning up the PS files for processing by pkfix. Two files are required to use a Type 1 font under Windows. However, when I attempt to use this program on a file created by this version of dvips, I received the following error message: All of the PS files in question were created during the 1990's with version of LaTeX and dvips (version 5.58 or earlier), and the LaTeX source files are now lost.ĬTAN has a Perl program, pkfix, that claims to be able to replace the Type 3 with Type 1 fonts for the PS files that were created with dvips (version 5.58 or newer). My goal is to convert the PS files into high quality, searchable PDFs, which is not possible with the Type 3 fonts in place. I am puzzled as to how to replace Type 3 bitmap fonts contained in a series of old PostScript files with more modern, Type 1 scalable fonts.
