After some hassles (no problem with me, to be expected from something new as luatexbeta) I finally got as far as: compiling and installing luatex, luatools and friends. setting up shell variables. doing "texexec --make --all --luatex" Alas, mag12 tells about installing luatex, it does not tell me how to run things. I thought that "luatex --fmt=cont-en luatest1.tex" would work, but it gives me: This is luaTeX, Version 3.141592-beta-0.10.2-2007081511 (Web2C 7.5.6) I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'! Now doing "luatools --ini --compile cont-en" tells me "Beginning to dump on file cont-en.fmt (format=cont-en 2007.8.15)" but even then I get: 126 ~/temp/luatex: luatex --fmt=cont-en luatest1.tex This is luaTeX, Version 3.141592-beta-0.10.2-2007081511 (Web2C 7.5.6) I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'! And no better with: 127 ~/temp/luatex: luatex --fmt=cont-en.fmt luatest1.tex I did the example "luatools lmr12.afm" and it gave neatly "/usr/local/ texlive/2007/texmf-dist/fonts/afm/public/lm/lmr12.afm" but if I do "luatools cont-en.fmt" it just returns an empty message. How do I proceed? What am I missing here? Hans van der Meer

Thanks. Indeed. Should have thought of that myself. By the way, is there a switch to suppress all those "report >> " lines coming out? Hans van der Meer

You should get these lines only when filling in the cache (first texexec run). The output of the second texexec run should be much shorter. Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

indeed, and some of them are for diagnostics and may go away (you can turn on a lot of tracing btw) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hans van der Meer what about $>texmfstart texexec --luatex luatest1.tex
