when I am compiling any TeX document in my TeXMaker, it is giving me the following error message.

Font OT1/ptm/bx/n/20.74=ptmb7t at 20.74pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not
found.

I am using Linux.

It seems you are trying to work the font times. Related to the font catalog your have to load the following packages:

\usepackage{mathptmx}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

The German document l2tabu recommends:

\usepackage{mathptmx}
\usepackage[scaled=.92]{helvet}
\usepackage{courier}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

After this update you it should work.
