Patrick,
Thanks for the confirmation that something like:
xxx = fonts.definers.read("drm10.otf:mode=base;liga=false;kern=false;",
tex.sp("10pt"))
x = font.define(xxx)
is a reasonable approach. I should have been more clear, (and I do want to
stay exclusively on the Lua side) but the failure of
font.getfont(x)
and the success of
font.fonts[x]
led me to think I might be missing something. This behaviour still seems odd
to me. Why the difference?
I suppose as long as I have a working system, it is not that important though.
Thanks,
Robert

Hello Robert,
I am unsure what you want to do, stay on the Lua side or use the TeX side to
define fonts?
I define the fonts on the Lua side by creating a font table then use
local num = font.define(newfont)
where newfont is the font table (6.1 in the manual)
