Metric (TFM) file not found. (stmary)

I just found out that mathbbol also does not allow the \LaTeX command in section headings!

Try this and see what I mean:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt,letterpaper]{article}
\usepackage{mathbbol}
\begin{document}
\section{Trying out \LaTeX}
\end{document}

Re: Metric (TFM) file not found. (stmary)

By the way, this is not a critical issue for me, since I no longer include the blackboard bold packages in my "style file" (see http://aforrester.bol.ucla.edu/educate.php#LaTeX) that I include in my LaTeX files. (I like 11pt font size.) But now I know that when I do use mathbbol, I can't use 11pt ...

Re: Metric (TFM) file not found. (stmary)

I just wanted as many blackboard bold characters as possible. The package bbold doesn't have this latest-mentioned error, but it doesn't seem to provide lower-case Greek letters like mathbbol does (... although bbold does provide blackboard bold punctuation and other symbols).

Metric (TFM) file not found. (stmary)

I've finally fixed (almost all of) my problems! The solution was to download (via Adept, since I'm using Kubuntu) texlive-math-extra, which has stmaryrd -- St Mary Road symbols for functional programming, and texlive-fonts-extra, which has bbold -- Sans serif blackboard bold, and then make sure that ...

Metric (TFM) file not found. (stmary)

add the "textlive-latex-recommended" package in kubuntu.

I have "texlive-latex-recommended" installed. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but no luck.

I now think the problem is a conflict between
\usepackage[cspex,bbgreekl]{mathbbol}
and my definition for "squished lists ...

Metric (TFM) file not found. (stmary)

I'm getting the following error when I try to compile my LaTeX file ( LifeStyle.tex ):

./LifeStyle.tex:16:Font U/stmary/m/n/10.95=stmary11 at 10.95pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found. \item T

This error has something to do with the mathbbol package:
The file has
\usepackage[cspex ...
