[MiKTeX] Beamer, Unicode, pdflatex and cbgreek fonts

[Ioannis E. V. <ve...@ca...>]

Dear all,

I successfully installed MikTeX RC1 two days ago. I am able to compile 
my files and get the expected output. Even my LaTeX documents written in
Greek come out very nice using pdflatex and the type1ec package, i.e.,
all fonts are not jagged at. all This is in contrast to the default
MikTeX installation for 2.4. Btw, it was not easy to correct this in 2.4
when using the cbgreek fonts, but I managed to do it.

However, there remains one problem that I could not solve. I have some
presentations in Greek, that I wrote using the beamer package. In order
to see at all Greek in these presentations I have to use Unicode.
However, even after including the package type1ec in these presentations
and compiling with pdflatex, the output is not very good, meaning that
all Greek fonts are jagged. This seems odd to me, because all other
Greek documents work correctly. And in 2.4, after installing the .pfb
files for cbgreek fonts, everything worked even in this case. Any idea
what the problem could be?

Thank you in advance,

Ioannis
