But, Hans, in the post Mojca says I have the same problem:) uh?
In font-syn.lua there is local pathlist = fonts.names.getpaths()
This used to contain some hard-coded paths for Mac users, but then Hans switched to reading fonts.conf with
-- name is "fonts.conf" local name = fonts.names.xml_configuration_file or "" if name ~= "" then -- this works on Hans' computer, but not here; name becomes empty local name = input.find_file(name,"other") -- so this loop is never entered and system fonts are never read if name ~= "" then collect(xml.collect_texts(xml.load(name),"dir",true)) end end
I guess that Hans has a fonts.conf in his TeX tree, while Linux & Mac users don't, and luaTeX doesn't know where to look for fonts.conf. What's worse: I suspect that OSFONTSDIR might be completely ignored.
No, don't ask me where fonts.conf should be. Mine are at /Users/mojca/.fonts.conf /private/etc/fonts/fonts.conf but I have no idea what's the proper/default location if any.
If this is fontconfig's fonts.conf, the per user file is ~/.fonts.conf, the system wide file depends on your installation. But not every user will have a ~/.fonts.conf (it must be manually created AFAIK). Regards, Khaled
The /private/etc/fonts/fonts.conf one says:
<!-- Load per-user customization file --> <include ignore_missing="yes">~/.fonts.conf</include>
<!-- Load local system customization file --> <include ignore_missing="yes">local.conf</include>
So I guess that's where the other one gets included.

Ah. So, what the mail by Mojca meant? the one starting with: Hans, I thought that it had worked some time ago, but it seems that it's broken. OPENTYPEFONTS seems the right folders, but doesn't find files in them. ....
that something is broken om mojca's machine but we're working on it (when we have a spare moment) Hans
