Yes - this should probably be fixed by including CTAN://fonts/psfonts/bh/lucida/doc/fonts/lucida/readme.lucida: ,---- | This distribution contains the TeX fonts metrics, virtual | fonts and LaTeX font definition files for the Lucida | Bright and Lucida New Math fonts. | | This file set does, however, NOT include: | | * the actual Type 1 fonts (*.pfb, *.pfm, *.afm); | | * LaTeX macro packages to support math typesetting. `---- > After all, there's no > trace of any hls* file in any of the TeX packages. Then why are these files > present?? Like some other support files for non-free fonts, they are present in order to allow those who have bought these fonts to easily use them with TeX.
