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

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,
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
