Suddenly it seems, I am getting bad messages for quite normal math fonts: Warning: pdfetex (file cmsy8): kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / -- bdpi 72 --mag 1+7/72 --dpi 79 cmmi10 mktexpk: Mismatched mode ljfzzz and resolution 72; ignoring mode. mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 72 dpi devices. mktexpk: Use a config file, or update me. (<<<< Why is this?) Font cmsy8 at 72 not found Warning: pdfetex (file cmmi10): Font cmmi10 at 79 not found {/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-dist/fonts/enc/dvips/psnfss/8r.enc} I am not aware having changed to resolution 72 for ljfzzz or doing something different from previous installations of new context versions. The mode for ljfzzz was set with texconfig. I was running the 2005-10-27 context version, but reverting tot 2005-08-31 did not solve the problem. What has happened to my fonts? Has it something to do with the fact that tetex and context seem to use directories .texmf-config and .texmf-var differently? Why does something that ran without a hitch suddenly is broken? Does someone know how to restore things to normal? Hans van der Meer
