Thanks, Pete. there is no truetype/ directory under /usr/local/teTeX/ 
share/texmf.gwtex/fonts/ the only directories are adobe/ afm/ enc/  
map/ tfm/ type1/ and vf/. kpsewhich can't find HoeflerText.ttf. I  
couldn't find it either using locate even after updating the locate  
database.

All the best, Mark
