Hello Hans, I agree that spaces are tricky, but XeTeX does require those spaces for example\footnote{Yes, yes, I know what you wanted to repy about XeTeX. I would rename the font as well, but on the other hand being able to use the same definition for bothe engines is only a benefit.}. As long as the syntax is clear: [file:Some Name With Spaces] this should be accepted in my opinion. If you store font names without spaces and dashes in database, it might make sense to strip the name in a similar manner here before trying to access the database and ask it to give back the font.
