We need much better error handling and error reporting in these cases.
I propose another internal integer: \pdffonterrorlevel. 0 is the current behaviour, which will just produce warnings :-( 1 gives an error when a pfb can not be found or a mapfile can not be read or something else goes wrong. :-)
Isn't a missing pfb file always a fail, as the PDF-file would be broken without it anyway, and one would have to repair something? If so, why not write in t1_open_fontfile() of writet1.c instead of the warning: if (!t1_open()) pdftex_fail("cannot open Type 1 font file for reading"); Or is there a case where a warning still would be ok?
