Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ mathdesign | Using Bitstream Charter

[ElWray]

Hi.

I have a problem using mathdesign package. I want my equations to be printed with charter font. To achieve that I'm using mathdesign package with proper option chapter just like in the example below:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[polish,11pt]{article}
\usepackage[bitstream-charter]{mathdesign}
\usepackage[cp1250]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\begin{document}
Some example text
$$E=mc^2$$
\end{document}

I'm working under Windows and MiKTeX 2.8 version. To compile that i use PDFLaTeX but there is a problem while compiling. There is an information that bchr8y font can not be found (see attached log file). To install mathdesign package I used MiKTeX Package Manager so I guess that package is complete and I don't understand that some files are missing.

Try updating your distribution to MiKTeX 2.9.

Because with TeXLive 2011 it compiles without problems.

See attached files.

Perhaps updating the font map files helps. For this, you could run

Code: Select all

initexmf --mkmaps

at the command prompt. It's described in Chapter 5. Advanced Topics, Managing Font Map Files in the MiKTeX Manual.

However, updating to 2.9 would also be a very good option, as Nikolay said. Sooner or later it would be necessary anyway.
