I installed the MTPro2 fonts in Ubuntu 12.04 by extracting the MTPro2
ZIP file into a directory called "mathtime" and then doing the
following:
sudo mv mathtime/* /usr/local/share/texmf/
cd /usr/local/share/texmf/
sudo texhash
sudo updmap --disable mt-belleek.map --nomkmap
sudo updmap --disable belleek.map --nomkmap
sudo updmap --disable mt-yy.map --nomkmap
sudo updmap --disable mt-plus.map --nomkmap
sudo updmap --enable Map mtpro2.map
sudo chmod -R a+r+x /usr/local/share/texmf/
However, when trying to compile a LaTeX document that uses the MTPro2
fonts, I get the following:
Document Class: article 2007/10/19 v1.4h Standard LaTeX document class
(/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/base/size10.clo)) (./mtpro2.sty
kpathsea: Running mktextfm mt2exa
mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1;
nonstopmode; input mt2exa
This is METAFONT, Version 2.718281 (TeX Live 2009/Debian)
kpathsea: Running mktexmf mt2exa
! I can't find file `mt2exa'.
<*> ...:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input mt2exa
There are more messages before and after the portion shown immediately above, but I think this is the most relevant portion.
Everything used to work fine under Ubuntu 11.10, but I recently
installed Ubuntu 12.04 on a new machine, and now I can't get the
MTPro2 fonts to work. Help! 🙂

I fixed the original problem, and then another problem that arose after fixing the original problem. Now it works perfectly. Let me explain...
As you can see from the full directory-hierarchical list of the contents of the MTPro2 ZIP file in the original post, the ZIP file contains a directory named
texmf. The original problem was due to the fact that I moved thetexmfdirectory itself into the directory/usr/local/share/texmf/, whereas I should have moved the contents of this directory into/usr/local/share/texmf. Thus, the directory and file set that was supposed to be located in/usr/local/share/texmf/was actually located in/usr/local/share/texmf/texmf.So, I removed all my local settings by issuing the command (with sudo because I may have accidentally created some files as root previously):
sudo rm -rf ~/.texmf-*I next removed the MTPro2 files from the incorrect location using the command:
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/texmf/texmfThen I moved the MTPro2 files to the correct location using the command:
sudo cp -r ~/ZIP_FILE_CONTENTS/texmf/* /usr/local/share/texmf/Next, I issued the correct commands to update my system:
So, now that I had (or thought I had) correctly installed MTPro2, I attempted to build a sample document using the MTPro2 fonts. The original error message was gone (yay!), but a different message appeared:
But the solution to this new problem was fixed easily by the solution described in this post. Namely, I manually appended to the file
$(kpsewhich updmap.cfg)a line containing the textMap mtpro2.map, and then re-ransudo updmap-sys.
