[OS X TeX] LW35 fonts, hard to get rid of

[Frans Goddijn]

Hi all

For now, I have solved the problem by being stubborn, hacking away the 
parts in psfonts.map that caused problems and then  saving the file as 
psfonts.map and as psfonts_t1.map in my personal 
/texmf.local/fonts/map.dvips/updmap folder.

Then I did "sudo mktexlsr" in the terminal window.

Then I compiled a tex file again and now this one compiled without that 
very very long list of problem-fonts.

I still remain open minded about the "proper" way to solve this.

Groet,

Frans
