If you still haven't figured out how to reproduce it, apply the patched I've attached. It will force the hash entries to be added in sorted order. With the patch applied, if you have some fonts called
Calibri Bold Italic.otf Calibri Bold.otf Calibri Italic.otf Calibri.otf
the order of hash insertions will always exactly as above, regardless of disk order, e.g.:
filename | 49 -> /usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri Bold Italic.otf filename | 50 -> /usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri Bold.otf filename | 51 -> /usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri Italic.otf filename | 52 -> /usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri.otf
So, you'll get bold italic instead of bold in the PDF.
the order is just one factor. what actually happens is that there is a compensation for buggy font names (as happens often in afm files) so in practice one entry might become three entries; taco noticed that one of the fallbacks create this way will then obscure a following one in your case it might be order on disk (although the current mechanisms do some sorting) but on our machines more likely is that a bugged afm font obscures later otf's (with similar names) anyhow, we'll cook up a patch Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
