[MiKTeX] MinionPro not working under MikTeX 2.9 on Windows 7

[Markus H. <hel...@gm...>]

Hello all,

I'm baffled.

Recently, I had to upgrade my computer from Win XP/MikTeX 2.8 to Win 7,
and I installed MikTeX 2.9 during the process.

I keep my MikTeX installation in c:\texmf and my local files in
c:\localtexmf.

On my old system, I had MinionPro and MyriadPro installed in localtexmf
(using the otf files from Adobe reader).  Everything worked.

Now, after the switch to Win 7 and MikTeX 2.9, I copied my localtexmf
folder over, added it to the MikTeX roots, refreshed the FNDB, added
MinionPro.map using initexmf --edit-config-file updmap, and the
resulting file looks like:

%% T1 font configuration settings. See the MiKTeX manual for help.
Map MinioPro.map
Map MyriadPro.map

Refreshed the FNDB again, used updmap, and initexmf --mkmaps, but to no
avail: when I compile a document with Minion, I always get:

!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file MinionPro-Bold-Base-ab): Font MinionPro-Bold-Base
-ab at 545 not found
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

Interestingly, MyriadPro works fine.

I don't know what to do, I've even retraced all the steps from the
MinionPro README; all files are in the appropriate places, at least as
far as I can tell.

I'd appreciate any hints, although I have a sneaking suspicion that it's
something stupid that I'm missing here ...

Thanks and Cheers
Markus
