MiKTeX and proTeXt ⇒ updating updmap.cfg
updating updmap.cfg
"1. Copy the updmap.cfg file from the system tree branch web2c to a folder
with the same name grafted the same position in your local/personal tree;
2. edit the copied file so as to change the cbgreek.map name to cbgreek-full.map;
control that the line you modified does not contain any comment mark,
that in that file is made up by the hash sign #; the word Map or Mixedmap
should be flush left; save the modified file;
3. from the same location run the program1
updmap --cnffile ./updmap.cfg"
Problem:
1. I don't have a folder called "web2c"
2. There is a file called updmap.cfg in /MiKTeX 2.7/miktek/config/, but it says in its header:
"## updmap.cfg: T1 font configuation file for MiKTeX.
##
## DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE DIRECTLY! It will be replaced when
## MiKTeX is updated.
##
## Run
##
## initexmf --edit-config-file updmap
##
## to edit T1 font configuration settings."
Not sure what to do at this point....

Which documentation? The MikTeX help says tobeoram wrote:I'm trying to install some fonts (cbgreek-full). In the documentation it tells me to…
Just change the xyz.map with the actual map file you place it somewhere where TeX & friends can find itFor example, follow these steps if you want to add an entry for the font map file xyz.map:
- Run initexmf --edit-config-file updmap.
- Insert the following line at the end of the file:
Map xyz.map- Save the file and close the editor.
- Run initexmf --mkmaps to rebuild the font map files.
