It turns out that the otftotfm I was using was in /usr/local/bin,  
although there was another in /usr/texbin. As soon as I used the  
latter the problem went away.

I blush to say that I had this problem before and fixed it in  
precisely the same way. Your question, "Where is the otftotfm  
located?" caused a reset of my failing carbon-based RAM ;>}.

Thank you.

Stephen
