For all the standardization that Adobe set out to establish, it is amazing
how many inconsistencies there are in the various file formats associated
with Type 1 fonts.
There are probably inconsistancies in the various entries in your .AFM
file(s) and the ASCII header(s) of the .PFB file(s). PgS supplies a utility
to correct these problems. DON'T USE IT! It wrote garbage to my hard drive.
Examine the files, using a text editor for the .AFM file and a HEX editor
(NEWZAP) for the .PFB and examine the entries for Fontname, fullname,
family name, and version number. These must correspond. Alter either file
to accomplish this and the problem should clear up.
