The error was introduced when support for XeTeX was added. It should be fixed in the distributions, but as long as it's not, here's what you can do.

In <code>texmf.cnf</code> fix this line:
TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//

I have no idea how to fix this in MikTeX. Just delete the folder in [MikTeX PATH]/fonts/map/dvipdfm (? - I'm not sure if this is the proper one).

== ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry ==

In <code>texmf.cnf</code> fix the value that has been reported as too small

{{todo|some examples}}

?

There might be two reasons for this error:
* wrong usage
* you don't have the needed font installed

{{todo|explain what is needed to install the font - probably a page on its own anyway}}
