Hello.
I'm trying to get LMTX to use my fonts on Fedora 33 Linux. I've got LMTX
installed in the directory /sw/versions/context/lmtx and I've put copies of the
fonts I'd like to use in /sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts. Some of
them are truetype and some of them are opentype. When I run
mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force
it says
fonts | names | scanning path
'/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for otf files
fonts | names | 0 otf files checked, okay
and later
fonts | names | scanning path
'/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for ttf files
fonts | names | 0 ttf files checked, okay
Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
did you add the /fonts subpath?
/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data
i normally put them in
data/whatever/whataverer*.otf
(data is kind of generic, there is no need to distinguish between various font
types)
When I added your “Lost in fonts” article to the CGJ, I did exactly that with
the included TYFA* fonts.
They were not recognized in the same folder as the article or in
texmf-fonts/fonts/data/tyfa, even after several force reloads; they were only
found when I added them to the system font directory (~/Library/Fonts on MacOS).
did you also do mtxrun --generate beforehand?
I didn’t because that’s part of the install script, isn’t it? I run that more
or less daily.
But it doesn’t change anything – deleted the fonts from Library, they’re still in
texmf-fonts, --generate, --reload --force => fonts not found.
Since my texmf-fonts is a symlink (to avoid the same tree in several
installations), I also checked if a “real” directory solves the problem – no.
No clue ... maybe --verbose helps ... i assume that mtxrun --generate
shows the path being seen.
