Beste Werner, David,
There was indeed a typing error in my example, I picked out the only one of
the 4 with the error. The others do read as: pfa="Times-Bold.pfa", etc.
The pfa files are in the correct directory, XEP/afm. I used the true type
fonts before in the same way, with success (they were 'embedded') and that
is why I think maybe the pfa files are not right. Would it be better to use
PFB files?
I do not get any message displayed either.
When I look at the generated PDF, the document properties give:
"Type=type1" "Encoding=Standard" "Actual Font=TimesNewRomanPSMT" instead of
'embedded' as with the True Type fonts.
Els

For PDF output, pfa vs pfb should not make any difference, the font
is not recoded. However, I believe that if the font does not get
embedded, then XEP displays diagnostics explaining why it happens.
Possible causes may be, as you correctly assume, the pfb file missing
from the directory XEP is looking for them in. In any case, the
font is either embedded, or an explanation is displayed.
