And would create lots of others. We have contemplated this way, but the sheer amount of fonts, some of which are not properly tagged for fontconfig, would create havoc. Thus, we only activate a few directories. Feel free to add a file /etc/fonts/local.conf that add the dir or only some. For exmaple, I have: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <dir>/usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/opentype</dir> <dir>/usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/type1</dir> <dir>/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/adobe</dir> <dir>/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/nowacki</dir> <dir>/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/gust</dir> <dir>/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/fira</dir> </fontconfig> Norbert ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PREINING, Norbert http://www.preining.info JAIST, Japan TeX Live & Debian Developer GPG: 0x860CDC13 fp: F7D8 A928 26E3 16A1 9FA0 ACF0 6CAC A448 860C DC13 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
