Bug#227856: tetex-bin: dvipdfm generates bitmap fonts in stead of T1 fonts

I am not the best in font stuff, so some of the following questions
might be foolish.
- These fonts are not postscript versions of CM fonts, but separate font
families, correct? These fonts are not included in tetex, but have
been installed by you? Or is this just Adobe's Helvetica or URW
Helvetica or something else included in tetex?
It's in the former psfonts (or txfonts) package, now included in
tetex-bin, afaik. I have not installed any extra fonts.
- In your test document, you only use text fonts of \familydefault phv,
but you declare a lot of other things. Does the following smaller
document also produce the problems on your system? On my system, both
version use postscript fonts with dvipdfm.
Your minimal document also showed the problem.
- Which map entries are in your /etc/texmf/dvipdfm/config? If you didn't
change the original file, is should be at the end and only say
% Font map files; maintained by updmap(1)
f dvipdfm.map
If you changed it, please give us the whole file.
I had not changed it, but it was different from what you have.
I think this was the problem. It may have been caused by an old dvipdfm
package that used to be installed. I have completely purged tetex-base
and reinstalled it. Now the config file looks as you say and the
problem is completely gone! (Including all warnings...)
In other words: it was a local config problem. I guess you can close the
bug now. :)
Thanks for your reply!
Kind regards,
