Re: Font problems in 2.3.24

[Mats Bengtsson]

I guess that the PDF file you get doesn't look too good, at least not
on screen, since it will contain bitmap fonts instead of vector fonts.

What LilyPond does internally, is to call dvips with the following
flags:
dvips -Ppdf -u+lilypond -u+ec-mftrace filename.dvi

What happens when you try this manually?
Maybe it's a problem with the the map file ec-mftrace.map.
The command
kpsewhich -format='PostScript header' ec-mftrace.map
should return something like
/usr/share/texmf/dvips/ec-fonts-mftraced/ec-mftrace.map
