I have tried but the same problem still exists.

Maybe my updated CentOS 7 system is lack of "century schoolbook font", the corresponding font package I searched in the web is "texlive-palatino-svn28614.0-45.el7.noarch.rpm".
However, when I yum install it, the terminal gives the following information: 
Package 2:texlive-palatino-svn28614.0-45.el7.noarch already installed and latest version.

I have no idea what the problem  is. 

On my RHEL-7 system the Century Schoolbook fonts are called “new century schoolbook” (your error message doesn’t have “new” in the name) and are installed in these standard X11 packages:

xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi-7.5-9.el7.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi-7.5-9.el7.noarch

etc. You almost certainly have those installed, so my question is why edm is looking for “century schoolbook” instead of “new century schoolbook”. Our (now very old) installation of edm has this line in the edmMain/fonts.list file

new century schoolbook=-*-century schoolbook l-(medium,bold)-(r,i)-normal--0-(80,90,100,110,120,140,180,240,320,480,720)-75-75-p-0-*-*

Did you perhaps miss a step when installing edm?

Hi, neu
    A softlinked file can be built after 75dpi installed with yum.
    # ln -s /usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi /etc/X11/fontpath.d/75dpi
    
    100dpi can be built in the same way.

    I have used this way on any centos7 version.

Subject: Question about the font name for EDM
Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="gb2312"
 
Deal all,
Recently I have update centos 7 to the version: CentOS Linux release 7.8.2003 (Core)
However, edm cannot be run correctly as before, the new problem is as follows when typing edm command in the terminal:
 
No such font available: [-*-century schoolbook l-medium-r-normal--0-80-75-75-p-0-*-*]
Last line processed: 12
Font init failed - abort
 
I have already set the following command in bashrc:
xset fp+ /usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi
 
and the problem still occurs.
 
Maybe I should install new font and I have no idea what the font name is I should type using yum install command.
Thank you in advance.
