Installing Cyrillic font
Hello I'm looking for help with installing the Adobe Times font with Cyrillic support. I have TIR_____.PFB and all other companion files. It surely contains Cyrillic glyphs because I can type Russian using a font viewer. I run the texfont utility as follows texfont -fontroot=e:/texmf --sourcepath=. --vendor=adobe --encoding=t2a --collection=timescyr --makepath --install and it performs good. But created t2a-adobe-timescyr.pdf test file shows no Cyrillic glyphs (it seems like there are vacant empty spaces from 192 to 255). Also I cannot make use of Russian in my context scripts. (Latin goes well) I'm ready to send any additional relevant info. Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

Assuming your copy of TIR_____.PFB really has cyrillic (I am a bit suspicious because mine doesn't, and Adobe's website says that the character set for "Times Std" is "Adobe Western 2", and that charset doesn't contain cyrillic at all. But I could be wrong and/or just confused by the file name): The most likely problem is that you do not have a correct .enc file (the log of the t2a-adobe-timescyr.tex pdftex run would definately help).
