Hello Hans, I really rarely work on windows recently, but it would be great if the windows minimals would support xetex & fontconfig properly. Currently XeTeX fails to work since some libraries are missing (icuuc34.dll is reported, but others are missing as well). These was true some time ago: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation#XeTeX_Installation Most things still hold, the only thing is that binaries could now be taken from TeXLive. This is a list of missing files in bin: fc-{cache,case,cat,glyphname,lang,list,match}.exe icudt34.dll icule34.dll icuuc34.dll TECkit_x86.dll I don't know what these are, but they might be needed as well (no idea): nkf.exe ole32.dll oleaut32.dll rpcrt4.dll I don't have the TeXLive here, but if you take a look into ftp://akagi.ms.u-tokyo.ac.jp/pub/TeX/win32/xetex-w32.tar.bz2 the following is also *really* needed: - texmf/fonts/ {everything except opentype} (-doc/xetex/XeTeX-reference and xetex-guide might be useful, but not needed) "Setting up fontconfig" still holds as written on the wiki. Would it be possible to add these files and fontconfig settings? I would really like to remove that portion of instructions from the wiki. Thanks a lot, Mojca
