Try Taco's suggestion, I myself got unpredictable results with ~/.fonts, try instead ~/texmf/fonts/{afm,type1} or even ~/texmf/fonts/data
Thanks! This solved my problem: % mkdir -p ~/texmf/fonts/data % mv *.{pfb,afm} ~/texmf/fonts/data % export OSFONTDIR="$HOME/.fonts;$HOME/texmf/fonts/data" Or, to keep all fonts under ~/.fonts , this also works: % mkdir -p ~/.fonts/tex % mv *.{pfb,afm} ~/.fonts/tex % mkdir -p ~/texmf/fonts % ln -s ~/.fonts/tex ~/texmf/fonts/data % export OSFONTDIR="$HOME/.fonts" For some reason I was trying $HOME/context/tex/texmf/fonts/data previously, which didn't work. But things are now working quite nicely now -- thank you all. Regards, John -- John Magolske http://B79.net/contact
