Hi John,

sorry, but I wonder whether you meant TeX Live 2014.

Font files, I guess.

Add after the last line in /home/safe/context/tex/setuptex:

  export OSFONTDIR="/usr/share/fonts/OTF//""

I would personally add:

  export OSFONTDIR="/usr/share/fonts//""

So you will be able to use other fonts than OpenType.

Then reload the font cache by running:

  . /home/safe/context/tex/setuptex
  mtxrun --script fonts --reload

I hope it helps,


Pablo
