Yes. I just wanted to document things and leave my settings there just
in case that the default becomes different with newer versions of texlive.

Right, I used that in the command line. Just as a small correction, it
should be the _ndl14.map file. But other than that, it works
wonderfully.

You hit the nail in the head here! Congrats. After using an empty
footline, it worked as expected.

No, this was just for experiment purposes. I almost always using latex,
as I don't know anything of plain tex (just the bare minimum, but not
enough to typeset my modest documents).
In fact, I was playing with fonts yesterday, since I have some good
documents that were produced with bitmapped fonts and pkfix isn't able
to substitute the fonts and, then, I started using the pkfix-helper
script, which helps a lot, but isn't perfect.
Well, anyway, thank you very much for the \pdfmapfile hint and for
pointing out that the page number was pulling in the CMR10 font.
Thank you very much for the very informative e-mail.
Thanks again,
