Greetings all & Adam, Having successfully installed Jenson & Minion Pro I've been trying to get Myriad Pro to install as a companion Sans (motivated in part by the fact that Adam has a nice typescript file for Warnock Pro with Myriad). I'm having some difficulties, which seem similar to difficulties I had earlier on…but apparently we finished our conversation off the list, so I can't locate what the solution was ;) (I believe it was "try updating to the latest version of LCDF from *EXPERIMENTAL*"). Before I display some error messages, I want to ask, Adam, why the Myriad Pro fontsynonyms in your typescript do not have any of the OpenType features—liga? kern? Is this due to Myriad Pro's particulars? [I've just checked, and it isn't only Myriad Pro that won't install.] I'm using Gerben's i-Installer, 2004 stable, ConTeXt updater, LCDF 2.26 (no longer in the "experimental" directory). I've also tried with the 2005 development set. The result is the same. In any case, here we go: sudo texfont --fo=/ME/texmf --ve=adobe --co=myriadpro --lcdf --pre -- ma --in TeXFont 2.2.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 2000-2004 mktexlsr: Updating /Users/wooten/Library/texmf/ls-R... mktexlsr: Done. encoding vector : texnansi vendor name : adobe source path : . font collection : myriadpro texmf font root : /users/wooten/library/texmf pdftex map file : texnansi-adobe-myriadpro.map source path : . processing files : all on afm path locating afm files : using pattern ./*.afm locating afm files : using otf files converting : ./MyriadPro-Black.otf to ./MyriadPro-Black.pfb [etc.] font identifier : MyriadPro-Black -> text -> tfm processing files : otf -> tfm + enc otftotfm: /usr/local/Build/TeXLive.tl2003.development/share/lcdf- typetools/glyphlist.txt: warning: No such file or directory I had to round some heights by 14.5000000 units.

David, really briefly because I'm on holiday visiting family: those typescripts are old (predate the LCDF integration), and probably aren't of direct help as-is. Your other problem with installing has me scratching my head a bit. could it have to do with your font install root? is that tree always loaded in your configuration? Do the generated map files look healthy? adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Adam, there's no hurry on this one if it seems tricky. I'm also "on vacation" ;). Anyway, the font root is the same as I've used for earlier installations. The map files indeed do not look healthy, in fact they are empty after the comment. Dave On Aug 10, 2005, at 12:41 PM, Adam Lindsay wrote:
