[XeTeX] default fonts for text and math in xelatex (ubuntu, texlive 2011)
Hello all,
what is the default font setting for text and for math in xelatex?
what is loaded if no font is defined before \begin{document}?
I would like to change the default math font to monospaced in ubuntu (using
texlive 2011) then change it back.
Thanks for the help in advance.

For text it's Latin Modern.
You can check the fonts used with the pdffonts utility (from xpdf package).
With given \pagestyle{empty} you can exactly determine which fonts are used for
which kind of text or which kind of mathematical expression. Since XeTeX can
use TFM files I am pretty sure that it simply uses the usual Computer Modern
fonts.

HELP! I am getting this on a super-large tex file: ** ERROR ** Page number 65536l too large! I tried googling it, but did not find any references to this error. :( -Mike -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
Re: [XeTeX] default fonts for text and math in xelatex (ubuntu, texlive 2011)
Hmm, I have tried a short xe.tex file
===
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[math]{mathspec}
\newfontfamily\mymono{DejaVu Sans Mono}
\newfontfamily\mymathmono{DejaVu Sans Mono}
\begin{document}
{\mymono this is with mono} changed {\mymathmono $E=mc^2$} back as normal
\end{document}
===
for which xe.pdf is created
Using:
pdffonts -f 1 xe.pdf
name type emb sub uni object ID
- --- --- --- -
MQBWCL+DejaVuSansMonoCID TrueType yes yes yes 5 0
AEDUWP+LMRoman10-Regular-Identity-H CID Type 0C yes yes yes 7 0
FETFUV+CMMI10Type 1C yes yes no 8 0
ZYNKTW+CMR10 Type 1C yes yes no 9 0
LKHLTI+CMR7 Type 1C yes yes no 10 0
which really shows what fonts are used. As far as I understood well, words
changed, back as normal are set with LMRoman10-Regular-Identity-H
(Latin Modern as you wrote). \mymono changed this is with mono to DejaVu
Sans Mono.
But what font is used for $E=mc^2$? Is it CMMI10,CMR10 and CMR7? Where can
I get more info about these fonts?
Why isn't the the equation written in DejaVu Sans Mono as defined with
\mymathmono?
Kind regards,
Peter

Re: [XeTeX] HELP! ** ERROR ** Page number 65536l too large!
But the real question remains: does the topic starter really produce a file with 65000 pages? Or is there some other error at play?

TeX or pdfTeX generate such a file (I have tried a file with 7 pages).
But the DVI drivers behave different:
* dvitype is ok, it reports
| there are really 7 pages, not 4464!
and lists all pages.
* dvi2tty prints all 7 pages.
* dvips only prints 4464 pages, but reports in the header:
| %%Pages: 7
* dvipdfmx only prints 4464 pages.
* XeTeX aborts with
| ** ERROR ** Page number 70001l too large!
Perhaps dvips could be fixed, it already knows the correct
number of pages?
And if someone wants to play:
% iniTeX
\catcode`\{=1 %
\catcode`\}=2 %
\catcode`\#=6 %
\countdef\C=0 %
\C=1 %
\countdef\X=255 %
\X=7 %
\chardef\I=1 %
\let\A=\advance
\let\S=\shipout
\let\H=\hbox
\let\N=\ifnum
\let\F=\fi
\def\P{%
\S\H{}%
\A\C\I
\N\C\X
\let\P\relax

\P
}
\P
\end

Dear Heiko,
* dvitype is ok, it reports
| there are really 7 pages, not 4464!
In this case total_pages may be written in the dvi as 4464.
I find in tex.web:
@ At the end of the program, we must finish things off by writing the
post\-amble. If |total_pages=0|, the \.{DVI} file was never opened.
If |total_pages=65536|, the \.{DVI} file will lie. And if
|max_push=65536|, the user deserves whatever chaos might ensue.
Best,
Akira
