+If you expected the font to be available as an outline, and thus this
+script does not work and should not have been called, most likely the
+font's .tfm name is missing from the relevant map file (e.g.,
+psfonts.map for dvips, pdftex.map for pdftex).  These map files are
+typically maintained using updmap; q.v.
