Sorry -- haste makes waste and I don't have time at present to do proper testing/reporting. >> texmf-dist/fonts/tfm/public/bbm lacks bbmtt10.tfm, and, >> on linux (Knoppix 3.4), mf gives an error.

It is in tetex-texmf-beta-2.96.3.20040511. I don't think the .mf sources for these fonts have changed in years. Google shows that the error is not new, so I guess it has been ignored in the past. For tetex-beta-2.96.3.20040511 both "latex symbols" and "pdflatex symbols" worked. With test-texlive2004-live-20040627, adding bbmtt10.tfm and the .pk file allows "latex symbols" and "pdflatex symbols" to run, but there are more problems with .pk fonts using dvips or pdflatex because files like ifclk.gen aren't being found (in TL they are in texmf-dist/source/latex/ifsym/, but teTeX had them with the mf sources). -- George N.
