Dear Thomas and Arthur,

Thank you for your detailed help. Copying texlua and creating .luatex file make luatools run smoothly.

Now, luatools --generate run well.

I'd like to ask a few questions.

1. But, there is a warning message as following for "luatools -- ini ...".

Is it OK? or should I change something?

This is influenced by the variable trie_size in your texmf.cnf. In my unmodified TeXLive 2007, this is 300000; I have no idea why Gerben changed it. You could try setting this to a larger value and then regenerate the formats.

2. Also I got 'bad path' errors when I try to make other formats. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% texexec --make --all --pdftex

Hmm, you have conflicting path names: this is what kps uses: /usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.local and this is where texexec looks for the files: /usr/local/Build/powerpc/TeXLive.2006/ Where does this path come from? Do you have leftovers from older installations? Did you install TeXLIve from source at some point? What does whence -av texexec give?

3. Is it possible to use OTF fonts installed in the system not in TeXmf tree?

Not sure if this is implemented yet. Thomas
