I have an external font and be able to use it in my documents on my desktop computer with MiKTeX 2.9.
Now I try to use the same font with portable MiKTeX 2.9. The external font is located in my local TeXFM. With normal MiKTeX I need to call
initexmf --edit-config-file updmap
to open the local file updmap.cfg
for inserting Map thefont.map
. Portable MiKTeX (starting from the Command Prompt you get from the taskbar entry for MiKTeX portable) opens the system updmap.cfg
in <portable-MiKTeX>\miktex\config
, which is changed always you update portable MiKTeX.
It is a quick and very dirty workaround to change the system file until the next update, but how can I tell portable MiKTeX to use the external font and remember it over the next update?
For me this is an unwanted behavior, I would tend to see it as a bug.
