Thank you, Mojca, but I am afraid you have to be more specific. I created a directory ~/context/beta/empty I put into .profile OSFONTDIR=Users/bonasa/context/beta/empty Starting the shell gives: $echo $OSFONTDIR Users/bonasa/context/beta/empty
but: context myfile.tex gives fonts > names > 'OSFONTDIR' specifies path '/Users/bonasa/Library/Fonts' fonts > names > 'OSFONTDIR' specifies path '/Library/Fonts' fonts > names > 'OSFONTDIR' specifies path '/System/Library/Fonts' ???
