Dunno then, it is very confusing, some fonts are found by file name and some are not. Putting them in TEXMF tree makes them found.
Wild guess: could it be related to the dot in ".fonts" ?
Other fonts in that directory are found, font names works for all fonts there too.
May I chime in here? Hans, a couple of weeks ago, I reported a similar problem: none of the fonts in my personal texmf-trees ends up in the database. I can still reproduce the problem:
luatools AGaramondPro-Regular.otf /Users/tas/texmf/fonts/opentype/adobe/agaramond/AGaramondPro-Regular.otf
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all "agaramond*"
(i.e. nothing found). I can only use all these personal fonts via the file: syntax; name: does not work. Maybe these problems are related? Something's not quite kosher in the font database...
ah, this could be because a runtime scanned tree is not scanned for fonts in the database; this is somewhat disputable as such a tree is not expected to be stable i.e. files can come and go i can look into it but now now (no time now) and only if there is no performance penalty it's why I would always make a local tree 'databased' Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
