Right. I was wrong about texlive-fonts-extra: you need to install
the
cm-super package to get the cm-super fonts. I am investigating the
various fonts right now and will update the org-dependencies.org =20
file on
Worg later on this week. We can also add a FAQ entry to point back
to
org-dependencies - that should take care of the documentation
changes,
right?
I added a question to the FAQ with a pointer to a more extended (but
still
incomplete) discussion in org-dependencies. I'll try to add more
information
to the table later on this week.
Thanks Nick!

Both this system and MikTeX
offer cm-super as a standalone package, so perhaps just
recommending
that package (cm-super) would suffice? I confirmed that cm-super
is
not one of the default MikTeX packages in a standard install, so
Windows users may benefit from this advice, too.
Do windows users use evince? I'd think they mostly go with Acrobat
=20
Reader,
in which case they should have no problems with Type3 fonts.
The other possible change that Erik identified is the deletion
of =20=
the
t1enc package from the list of packages that org includes in =20
exported
LaTeX by default. I haven't tried without it, but it does indeed
=20
seem to
be an obsolete remnant of times long past.
I have tried without it. I was unable to to see any differences
=20
between
using \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} and adding the \usepackage{t1enc}
line. This makes sense given the FAQ answer below.
So getting rid of the \usepackage{t1enc} in org sounds like the
right
thing to do (but including it does not hurt, so there is no urgency,
iiuc.)
OK, thanks to all of you - I have removed the t1enc entry now.

The TeX FAQ
(http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=3Dt1enc ) says:
,----
| Why use fontenc rather than t1enc?
| | In the very earliest days of LaTeX2e, the only way to use
the T1
| encoding was t1enc; with the summer 1994 =93production=94
release, =
the
| fontenc package appeared, and provided comprehensive support
for =20=
use of
| the encoding.
| | Nevertheless, the t1enc package remains (as part of the LaTeX
2.09
| compatibility code), but it does very little: it merely
selects =20=
font
| encoding T1, and leaves to the user the business of generating
the
| character codes required.
| | Generating such character codes could be a simple matter, if
the
T1
| encoding matched any widely-supported encoding standard, since
=20
in that
| case, one might expect one=92s keyboard to generate the
character
| codes. However, the T1 encoding is a mix of several standard =20
encodings,
| and includes code points in areas of the table which standard
=20
encodings
| specifically exclude, so no T1 keyboards have been (or ever
will =20=
be)
| manufactured.
| | By contrast, the fontenc package generates the T1 code points
from
| ordinary LaTeX commands (e.g., it generates the =E9 character
=20
codepoint
| from the command \=92e). So, unless you have program-generated
T1 =20=
input,
| use \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} rather than \usepackage{t1enc}.
