Hello. I'm trying to get LMTX to use my fonts on Fedora 33 Linux. I've got LMTX installed in the directory /sw/versions/context/lmtx and I've put copies of the fonts I'd like to use in /sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts. Some of them are truetype and some of them are opentype. When I run mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force it says fonts | names | scanning path '/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for otf files fonts | names | 0 otf files checked, okay and later fonts | names | scanning path '/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for ttf files fonts | names | 0 ttf files checked, okay Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
did you add the /fonts subpath?
/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data
i normally put them in
data/whatever/whataverer*.otf
(data is kind of generic, there is no need to distinguish between various font types)
When I added your “Lost in fonts” article to the CGJ, I did exactly that with the included TYFA* fonts. They were not recognized in the same folder as the article or in texmf-fonts/fonts/data/tyfa, even after several force reloads; they were only found when I added them to the system font directory (~/Library/Fonts on MacOS).
