 I think you could just remove fonts.dir and fonts.scale and have type1inst
 generate new ones.
 I am not sure how Ted handles fonts though, do they still use the .afm files?
 In FreeBSD we have a historical problem: few people use .afm files and the few
 files we carry are broken. Last time I looked at the issue it's better to
 identify the atm files and download them directly from Adobe (a tedious task).
 
 cheers,
 
    Pedro.
