EDIT: Many thanks to Bernard for solving the issue. I needed to refresh the font map files.
I've been trying to experiment with using LaTeX for more than just math papers, and I thought I'd try using some of the more 'fun' text options available. For reference, I'm using MikTeX pdfLaTeX.
Specifically, I want to use the Acorn Initials (seen here). I installed the "initials" package from ctan and tried the following:
documentclassarticle
usepackage[T1]fontenc
usepackageinitials
begindocument
input Acorn.fd
newcommand*initfamilyusefontUAcornxln
initfamily Test
enddocument
I then get the following error:
Sorry, but "MiKTeX Compiler Driver" did not succeed.
.
.
.
!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file Acorn): Font Acorn at 600 not found
==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
Where am I going wrong? I've tried updating everything through the MikTeX package manager, as well as uninstalling and re-installing the "initials" package, restarting my pc, etc.
Any help is much appreciated! Thanks

No, but I'll give that a try! Edit: It worked! thank you so much! I had a feeling I was missing something basic.

It happens from time to time that MiKTeX forgets to refresh the type 1 fonts database. You can detect it when MiKTeX sends messages about trying to make .pk fonts (=bitmap fonts), which means it doesn't find the type 1 fonts.
