Greetings- I was getting the error message:
font tcrm1000 not found, leaving blank when creating a pdf file from LaTeX using the following sequence: latex microcultures dvipdf microcultures After some digging around, I found that the problem was that dvipdf attempted to run mf to create the font, but the directory into which it was to be put (/var/spool/texmf/tfm/jknappen/tc/) was not writeable by normal users. This caused dvipdf to fail without (much) information, although dvips was significantly more verbose. I post this mostly so others with similar problems can save a little of their hair, and also to ask if this constitutes a "bug" I should report.
