Subject: problem with texmf-local on Vista
Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2009 22:20:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B12F3C5.1030903@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I am a user of Context from the old days, and usually don't need much 
help installing the software. However, I am needing to use 
Contextminimals for the first time, as Miktex 2.8 has dropped Context 
support.

My problem is that I have a lot of my own setups and personal fonts and 
Contextminimals seems to have some problem dealing with local setups. I 
am using MkII by the way but these problems seem to exist in MkIV also.

I have a font, Univers, installed to texmf-local with texfont and 
Context claims it cannot find the font definitions.

running texexec I get the following:

!pdfTeX error: pdftex.exe (file 8r-raw-punr8a): Font 8r-raw-punr8a at 
432 not found
  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
TeXExec | runtime: 10.311

Then from command prompt, I type:
C:\Users\Christopher>kpsewhich 8r-raw-punr8a.tfm
c:/context/texmf-local/fonts/tfm/adobe/univers/8r-raw-punr8a.tfm

I know this is not strictly relevant to MkII, but for comparison:
C:\Users\Christopher>luatools --expand-path TEXMFLOCAL
c:/context/texmf-local

Also
C:\Users\Christopher>texexec --version
TeXExec | version 6.2.1 - 1997-2009 - PRAGMA ADE/POD

C:\Users\Christopher>context --version
MTXrun | main context file: 
c:/context/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.te
x
MTXrun | current version: 2009.10.27 16:35

How do I get Context to recognise the local setup?

Christopher
