The link to the Latin Modern map files does not seem to work. I have downloaded the zip from
 
[http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/lm/ http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/lm/]
 
and copied the maps for dvips to texmf-local/fonts/map/dvips. Running updmap is then needed to rebuild the maps.
 
 
I noticed that too. Hans and I are working on a replacement solution (hopefully tomorrow) [[User:Taco|Taco]]
 
 
If I understand it well, the files that have to be added to the cont-lmt is the dvips map file. Would it be possible to add the dvips maps directly into cont-lmt.zip? It contains pdftex maps, anyway. D.A.

Revision as of 11:59, 1 September 2005

In the section entitled Install the zip archive towards the end of the page, the line

cp -a /root/.texmf-var/web2c/* /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var/web2c

contains the hard-coded path /root/.texmf-var/web2c which is not explained. Could you clarify where I should be looking for the .texm-var/web2c folder and its contents please?

Thanks.
