Oh thanks for that tip, I finally got it to work. TeXnic wouldn't give me any informative errors but when I put it in TeXworks, it told me I was missing a few commas and brackets in my bib file etc. which is strange because it worked previously. In any case, everything is fine after I put those ...

Hello,
I am running TexLive2010 on a Windows XP machine and use TeXnic center as my editor. I had MiKTeX installed before and BiBTeX was working fine and dandy with it until I uninstalled it and installed TeXLive2010 instead. Now BiBTeX refuses to work. I don't what the problem is, it says the ...

\documentclass[letterpaper, 10 pt, conference]{ieeeconf}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,graphicx}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc ...

Actually I didn't have that, so I put it in and compiled the tex file. Its still giving me a type 3 font but this time its F108 instead of F68.

PS: See attached screenshot.

I hope someone can help with this: I am preparing a paper to submit at a conference and they have a specific compliance requirement not allowing any type 3 fonts (only type 1). I compiled my latex file and uploaded it to their server and it said I had one type 3 font on a couple of pages (3 out of 8 ...
