But then no MAP file tells TeX that the font name MinionPro-It-Base-ad is related to a scalable font and therefore no bitmap font files with different resolutions need to be generated. This "translation" from the TeX font name to the corresponding vector font file and its encoding is done via the MAP file. And therefore it's quite certain that the MinionPro.map file (fragment) has not yet been enabled.

Particularly the installation root /Library/TeX/Root/texmf is wrong. Packages from outside TeX Live belong into the /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local branch. Although it's confusing that the Minion Pro TFM support files /are/ part of TL 2012.

Dear Pete and Hebert,

I am sorry but you're going to have to go slow with me. Upon typing

 kpsewhich MinionPro.map

I get

/Users/MYHOME/Library/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/MinionPro/MinionPro.map

I did (probably stupidly) repeat the two lines you suggested
sudo mktexlsr
sudo updmap-sys --enable MixedMap MinionPro.map

but they had little effect. I guess it may have to do with my
directory structure. In any case, my head is spinning from the
multitude of directory possibilities (should things be in
/Library/texmf or /usr/local/texlive/2012/.../texmf-local etc.?)

It would help if you could clarify what's going on.

Thanks you!
