Hi all,

While trying to get a rupee symbol from the following document running on platform (Windows 7 with MiKTeX 2.9 and TeXmaker). I am getting the following error:

Document:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{exam}
\usepackage{tfrupee} % for creating rupee symbol

\begin{document}
  \begin {questions}
    \question
    Abhishek is the owner of a small grocery store in Dehradun. His annual revenue is \rupee200,000.
  \end{questions}
\end{document}
The following Error is coming during compilations.

Code: Select all

Trying to make PK font tfrupee at 720 DPI...

Running miktex-makemf.exe...

miktex-makemf: The tfrupee source file could not be found. Running ttf2pk.exe...

miktex-makepk

: PK font tfrupee could not be created.
Any help in this regard is solicited

Thanks in Advance

With sincere regards,

You have asked this question very similar already on {TeX} SX. According to the comments the proposed solution there worked first but then gave more problems which you did not mention here. How can this community here help if you conceal important details? m(

Hi Thorsten,

Thanks for your reply. I am extremely sorry for my mistake. I thought that {TeX} SX is not related to latex community. I will not commit the same mistake again.

With sincere regards,

It is indeed not related to LaTeX Community (LC), but many of us are member of more than one community. And I personally am not amused to see a solution where else after I tried working out a solution here (and vice versa).

Respected Sir,
Whatever i have learned so far in Latex is only from this community. As i do not know much about programming and no body around me is working with latex. So whenever i get problem, i try to communicate to get the solution. This is the first time i have posted somewhere else and i have committed the mistake by not explaining clearly

Thanks and Regards,
Upananda

Not entirely accurate. Just to make this clear. There is nothing against posting also to other boards. This can be helpful for you if you don't get an answer (here or there). But according to our rules you have to mention this by giving the direct link to the question on the other board.

Use this line near the place where you have written the usepackage lines and it works.

\pdfmapfile{=tfrupee.map}

Thank you.
