The encoding name AutoEnc_vbofd7zvdbrujjjeweezwvbpcd seems  
suspicious, but maybe it's legitimate.

I'm sorry, but I really can't help more (not enough time). Please  
turn to the OS X TeX list for more expert help.

The fact that padr8r--base isn't found seems to indicate your map  
file hasn't been taken into account. If it has, then you should see  
the padr8r entries inside /Library/teTeX/share/texmf.local/fonts/map/ 
dvips/updmap/psfonts.map, for example; and you should see you map  
file listed inside /Library/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/updmap.cfg,  
without comment character #!.

The existence of a directory ~/Library/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/  
would be a bad sign, showing that updmap has again not been run in  
the proper mode. So would be the existence of a file ~/Library/texmf/ 
web2c/updmap.cfg.

A good sign would be that "kpsewhich psfonts.map" returns the  
following output:

	$ kpsewhich psfonts.map
	/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map

Something known to have caused problems in the past is the existence  
of a file ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist containing path settings, but I  
can't see how this could affect dvips given this file affects GUI  
applications only and not CLI utilities.

I'm sorry, but I really can't devote more time to this.
