Did you try \preloadtypescripts?

If I put it after other font statements it has no effect, If I put it first ahead of the font statements the run has missing font errors. Possibly I am using a defective typescript file. Here is the error message: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ! Font \*MyCharter7ptrmslrm*:=8r-bchr8a-slanted-167 at 7.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found. ------------------------------------------------------------------- And here is the typescript file: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- % Charter (Bitstream) \usetypescriptfile[type-buy] \starttypescript [serif] [charter] [8r] \definefontsynonym [Charter-Roman] [bchr8r] [encoding=8r] \definefontsynonym [Charter-Italic] [bchri8r] [encoding=8r] \definefontsynonym [Charter-Bold] [bchb8r] [encoding=8r] \definefontsynonym [Charter-BoldItalic] [bchbi8r] [encoding=8r] \definefontsynonym [Charter-Slanted] [bchro8r] [encoding=8r] \definefontsynonym [Charter-BoldSlanted][bchbo8r] [encoding=8r] % \definefontsynonym [Charter-Roman-Caps] [bchr8r-capitalized-800] [encoding=8r] \stoptypescript % \starttypescript [serif] [charter] [name] \usetypescript[serif][fallback] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [Charter-Roman] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic][Charter-Italic] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [Charter-Bold] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [Charter-BoldItalic] \definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted] [Charter-Slanted] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldSlanted][Charter-BoldSlanted] % \definefontsynonym [SerifCaps] [Charter-Roman-Caps] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [Charter] \definetypeface [MyCharter] [rm] [serif] [charter] [default] [encoding=8r] \stoptypescript ---------------------------------------------------------- But this error does not occur if I don't use the \preloadtypescripts command. Any hints? John C.
