Hi,
I was able to replicate your issue in a recent version of TeXmacs and
resolved the issue. Newer versions of TeXmacs do not seem to support
balloons in file menus so I replaced the balloons with plain text.
Please checkout the new version from
https://gitorious.org/texmacs-better-fonts/texmacs-better-fonts-pfb
In a separate issue, when I print a TeXmacs document some of the
letters are not positioned correctly but are jagged like on a bad
typewriter. But this is happening with the default Computer Modern.
Not sure what the issue is.

Thanks for this. The fonts look good; only the menu doesn't work. I get:

Thanks for this! It should be part of the TeXmacs distribution.
