You need to install the fonts that go with the psnfss package,
in /tex-archive/fonts/psfonts/adobe at the CTANs eg ftp.dante.de ,
making sure that the .vf fonts are in the appropriate place, 
(probably as defined in the config file .../texmf.cnf),
and similarly for .tfm files, etc.
Also you may need to update .../dvips/psfonts.map
by appending the .map files from the adobe directory.
