Some of you must be familiar with this error:

raise RenderPMError, "Can't setFont(%s) missing the T1 files?\nOriginally
%s: %s" % (fontName,s1,s2)
reportlab.graphics.renderPM.RenderPMError: Can't setFont(Times-Roman)
missing the T1 files?

I found a supposed fix for Linux machines here:

http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/lp/downloads/programs/genomediagram/renderPM_help.txt

The instructions seemed sensible enough.  I downloaded the fonts to a
'fonts' subdirectory in the report lab directory.  However, I am still
encountering the same error message.  Does anyone know of a reason this
might be happening?

Thanks.
