I have several Type1 fonts which need to be installed such that LaTeX knows about them. To achive this under Miktex you have to follow these steps:
- Setup you localtexmf tree with the fonts or copy your localtexmf tree from a different installation into the corresponding Miktex directory.
- Run
initexmf --edit-config-file updmap
. That will open an editor. - Insert in that file all map files in the following form:
Save the file afterwards.Map xyz.map
- Run
initexmf --mkmaps
to rebuild the font map files.
Well, should either generate the files yourself or rely on the files generated by font experts. For example have a look at
http://home.vr-web.de/was/fonts
What do you do if the fonts didn’t come with a “.map” file? (I have a font with only “.afm”, “.pfb” and “.pfm” files.)
