Adobe ArnoPro in mkiv

Adobe ArnoPro in mkiv

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use the Adobe ArnoPro font (just testing if it will work  
with
ConTeXt). The font does work with ConTeXt/XeTeX, but not in mkiv. When I
try to compile my test file with mkiv, I get this error message (which
isn't very helpful to me):

  (/home/tas/texmf/tex/context/type-arnopro.tex (/home/tas/texmf/tex/ 
context/type-arnopro.mkiv))))
MtxRun | return code: ?
...live/texmf-local/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua:572: attempt  
to compare number with nil

I'm using the latest beta and luatex 0.28.0

Can anybody explain what's going wrong here?

Thanks

Thomas

what does texexec --lua do?

(it looks like either luatex is not run or crashed; i'll try to give a 
more meaningful message)

Hmm, with texexec --lua, I get no errors on the console, but no pdf is  
produced, and the log file is empty. The last line I see on the  
console is again
  (/home/tas/texmf/tex/context/type-arnopro.tex (/home/tas/texmf/tex/ 
context/type-arnopro.mkiv))))

Can you send the typescripts, it's weird to use different files for XeTeX
and LuaTeX because one should work for both.

I don't think you can use all the features with XeTeX, bit know  
precious little about XeTeX, my money is on luatex... Anyway, here is  
my typescript:


\starttypescript [serif] [arnopro]
   \definefontsynonym [ArnoPro-Roman]          [file:ArnoPro-Regular]

[features=default]
   \definefontsynonym [ArnoPro-Italic]         [file:ArnoPro-Italic]   
[features=default]
   \definefontsynonym [ArnoPro-Bold-Italic]    [file:ArnoPro- 
BoldItalic]  [features=default]
   \stoptypescript

\starttypescript [serif] [arnopro] [name]
   \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [ArnoPro-Roman]

   \definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]       [Serif]  [features=smallcaps]

Hi,

Did you manage to fix it? LuaTeX goes into (what I think is) an endless 
cycle --- I haven't allowed it to terminate naturaly, as it takes far too 
long even on a quad core.

load otf | warning: Bad pair position: glyphs 0 & 3148 should have been < 
2846

load otf | warning: Bad pair position: glyphs 0 & 3250 should have been < 
2846

load otf | warning: Bad pair position: glyphs 0 & 3784 should have been < 
2846

...

I should point out that on my Vista box LuaTeX crashes when I attempt to 
access the font information.

mtxrun --script fonts --list "arnoproregular" --info
% crashes

Yes, I get a "segmentation fault" here on OS X as well. I talked to  
Hans in Bohinj (I'm back earlier than the rest, who are still working  
hard in Slovenia), and he thinks we'll just have to wait a bit till  
luatex integrates code from fontforge v.3. So for the time being, Arno  
Pro is unfortunately no go.

Just for the record and in case anybody else is interested: with the  
latest luatex and the latest beta, ArnoPro now works in mkiv!

Re: Adobe ArnoPro in mkiv

[Mohamed Bana]

hi,

thanks for the reply, it's nice to hear that it's working - what was the 
problem?  anyhow, currently my favourite font is minion/warnock pro  and 
when the math version (that is, MinionMath) is released it'll be the 
ultimate font.  if you want to preview material typeset with 
minion/warnock pro you might want to check out Daniel Jackson's page 
http://people.csail.mit.edu/dnj/, in particular his book; Software 
Abstractions: Logic, Language, and Analysis is typeset in warnock pro.

do you mind sharing the typeset for arnopro, i'll give it a try to see 
how to compares to minion/warnock pro.

Mohamed
