Update: Thank you for comments and warnings! I contacted arXiv support to be sure, and you are not allowed to use mtpro2.

I am trying to make a submission to arXiv, and I am using mtpro2 for my symbols. I included all the files like .map .sty .tfm etc.

Processing succeeds, however, all of my \mathbb{} symbols are printed as regular letters. What could be the reason? I would really appreciate it if someone could help me to identify the issue. I do not know what I need to provide.

Below I attached an example that compiles well on my end, but fails on arXiv:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor}

\usepackage[scaled=0.92]{helvet}    
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{ptm}  

\usepackage{amsmath}

\usepackage[subscriptcorrection,mtphrd]{mtpro2}

\usepackage{hyperref}
\hypersetup{
    colorlinks=true,
    linkcolor=blue,   
    filecolor=magenta,
    urlcolor=red,    
    citecolor=blue
}

\def\dbR{\mathbb{R}}
\def\dbV{\mathbb{V}}

\begin{document}

\title{\bf Small Example}

\maketitle




\begin{abstract}
  To show symbols:
  \begin{equation*}
    \label{setvalued}
    \dbV: [0, T]\times \dbR^d \to 2^{\dbR^m}.
  \end{equation*}
  That is, for each $(t,x)\in [0, T]\times \dbR^d$,
\end{abstract}


\end{document}

    please show a small complete document which shows the problem. You posted some code which will give errors due to missing } but does not typeset anything or demonstrate the problem. Commented Mar 31, 2024 at 18:13

    mtphrd as far as I can see is the times-like mathbb which requitres the commercial mathtime fonts which arxiv won't have, you could presumably use the other set which is in the lite free subset (I don't actually have either) Commented Mar 31, 2024 at 19:53

    note \bf hasn't been defined by default in latex for 30 years and ptm family deprecated for almost as long, you may find it easier to use newtxtext,newtxmath for a totally free times compatible math and text setup. Commented Mar 31, 2024 at 19:55

    paying for mtpro is fine for your documents on your machine but you can't use the commercial part of mtpro at arxiv as they need to process the document on their servers with fonts for which they have a licence, so it's not a matter of which one looks best it's which ones are installed on the remote system.

    @Jo' You bought a license of MTPro2, so you're allowed to use them for any purpose covered in the license. But this doesn't include passing the fonts to anybody. In order to process your document, arXiv should have bought and installed MTPro2, which I think is unlikely. Commented Mar 31, 2024 at 21:31
