I've tried to install cm-super fonts following the given 
installation-guide.

It says:
> 4.1) [not for VTeX/Free] Instruct dvips and pdftex to use these fonts:
>
>    a) [on teTeX, but not on TeX Live]
>       edit the file .../texmf/dvips/config/updmap
>       and add the following lines into the extra_modules section:
>
> ../cm-super/cm-super-t1.map
> ../cm-super/cm-super-ts1.map
> ../cm-super/cm-super-t2a.map
> ../cm-super/cm-super-t2b.map
> ../cm-super/cm-super-t2c.map
> ../cm-super/cm-super-x2.map
>
>    b) run the updmap script.

But I have no updmap file in this directory (I'm using Gerben Wierdas 
tetex distribution.

So I followed the next step:

> 4.2) If your TeX system does not have tools like updmap for

>    configure each program which uses the Type 1 fonts:

>
> p +cm-super-t1.map
> p +cm-super-ts1.map
> p +cm-super-t2a.map
> p +cm-super-t2b.map
> p +cm-super-t2c.map
> p +cm-super-x2.map

    and

>    b) edit the file .../texmf/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg and add the

> map +cm-super-t2a.map
> map +cm-super-t2b.map
> map +cm-super-t2c.map
> map +cm-super-x2.map

then:

>  c) edit the file .../texmf/dvipdfm/config/config and add the

But there is no such folder.
I've run mktexlsr and texhash.

Finally I texed my document with [T1]{fontenc} but the pdf output was 
pixeled and I don't think cm-super fonts were used.

Any advice?

Tnaks a lot
