Running updmap on MiKTeX 2.9 causes error

Post by mhle »

Hello, I'm trying to install a font, but when running updmap I get the following error:

fc-cache.EXE: Windows API error 1113: No mapping for the Unicode character exists in the target multi-byte code page.
updmap: The operation failed for some reason.
updmap: Data: C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\fc-cache.EXE

The OS is Windows 7.
Any help would be apperciated!

Thanks, M
