I am an inexperienced latex user and try to create presentation file with beamer for the first time.


But I am having issues with running beamer files from TeXnicCenter.


For example, I got the following error message in one run:


Trying to make PK font mathkerncssi8 at 600DPI..

The METFAONT mod is : ljfour

Running miktex-makemf.exe..

Sorry, but miktex-makemf did not succeed for the following reason:

The mathkerncssi source file could not be found.

...

Running miktex-makepk.exe...

sorry, but miktex-mkepk did not succeed because PK font mathkerncmssi8 could not be created.

....

Fatal Error occurred. No output pdf file produced!


Other experiments also give similar error messages: complaining about "mathkerncssi source file?" could not be found!!


Any help will be appreciated.

Dear Sam,

It is very difficult to guess what happens without looking into your TeX
file. Could you send it?

Yours,
