I'm a little stuck here. This is a question that has been often
discussed on this list, but I'm not sure that I've seen an efficient
and/or complete resolution, so I'll ask again. I've read a lot of
documentation and hired my son to work on this, but some questions are
unresolved.
I use the Computer Modern fonts in the GW distribution and recently
bought the Lucida Bright fonts from Y&Y to use as an alternative. We've
got them to produce nice pdf documents using TexShop.
Now, when I typeset some simple material including an equation and
superscripts or subscripts, and then drag the result to Illustrator CS,
I get the following types of messages (here is the Lucida version):
The font LucidaNewMath-AltItalic is missing. Affected text will be
displayed using a substitute font.
The font LucidaNewMath-Roman is missing. Affected text will be
displayed using a substitute font.
The font LucidaNewMath-Symbol is missing. Affected text will be
displayed using a substitute font.
The document looks fine in the TexShop preview but the fonts get messed
up when I drag to Illustrator. I can see the material in Illustrator if
I used PDFTex in TexShop, but it misses the math and only gets the
Lucida Roman right. But I can't even see it if I used Tex+Ghostscript.
In addition to installing the modified yandy fonts in my local texmf
tree, I've installed the fonts in
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts/yandy
Clearly, we have the math fonts incorrectly linked.
Any suggestions?
--cheers, Gordon
