Description Mamoru TASAKA 2005-04-25 09:43:27 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050416 Fedora/1.0.3-1.3.1 Firefox/1.0.3

Description of problem:
After I upgrade fonts-ja to fonts-japanese,  seeing Japanese dvi file
with pxdvi immediately exits with the exit number 101 and the message 
"FT2: Open Font Error. (/usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType/kochi-mincho-subst.ttf)"

This is because Japanese fonts were moved from /usr/share/fonts/ja/...
to /usr/share/fonts/japanese/... but the description in the file 
/usr/share/texmf/pxdvi/vfontmap doesn't match this. 

[user@halo TEMP]$ rpm -q --changelog fonts-japanese
* Fri Feb 25 2005 Akira TAGOH <tagoh> - 0.20050222-2

- Use /usr/share/fonts/japanese instead of /usr/share/fonts/ja

Please edit /usr/share/texmf/pxdvi/vfontmap .



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tetex-xdvi-3.0-3  fonts-japanese-3.0-3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make dvi file which needs Japanese font to see.
2. See the dvi file with pxdvi
3.
  

Actual Results:  pxdvi exits immediately with error

Expected Results:  pxdvi can be truly executed

Sorry. fonts-japanese is 0.20050222-3.      

Comment 2 Jindrich Novy 2005-04-25 10:33:31 UTC
Could you please attach here some TeX source to produce Japanese dvi so that I
can test it after the fix?

sample dvi file which needs Japanese font

Sample dvi file generated from Japanese tex file by platex.
This dvi file cannot be seen by pxdvi. Editing vfontmap works for
me.

The source TeX document

And the source TeX file of the dvi file above.
This TeX document is encoded by EUC-JP.
