Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ How do I install fonts?

I suppose that I might as well add this. I tried installing another font with tlmgr...the font is Arev...and when I try to use it with

Any idea why that's happening?

Run LaTeX here

So please post a minimum example that exhibits this error. As a side note, you don't have to load the fontenc package manually; it is loaded automatically by the arev package.

This exhibits the same error that I posted earlier:

So I really don't know what to do. Something must be missing for me, I just have no idea what it is and I don't have the ability to download the entire distribution of LaTeX on this crappy internet connection just to make sure.

Possibly your map files are completely messed up. Open a command prompt with administrator rights and try to repair this at least for the arev font package.

An according command may solve this issue for the lxfonts.

So I tried that and it didn't work, but I'm at a place with good internet so I'm trying to download more of the package via TeX Live. We'll see if that solves it.

[thesourceofx]

Alright, so last night I downloaded the "Extra Fonts" and "Recommended LaTeX Packages" from TeX Live and now I appear to be able to use all the fonts that it downloaded, so I guess whatever it did fixed the problem with the metric (TMF) files.
