Hello.

I'm trying to get LMTX to use my fonts on Fedora 33 Linux.  I've got LMTX
installed in the directory /sw/versions/context/lmtx and I've put copies of
the fonts I'd like to use in /sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts.
Some of them are truetype and some of them are opentype.  When I run

mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force

it says

fonts           | names | scanning path
'/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for otf files
fonts           | names | 0 otf files checked,  okay

and later

fonts           | names | scanning path
'/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for ttf files
fonts           | names | 0 ttf files checked,  okay


Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

did you add the /fonts subpath?

   /sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data

i normally put them in

    data/whatever/whataverer*.otf

(data is kind of generic, there is no need to distinguish between 
various font types)

When I added your “Lost in fonts” article to the CGJ, I did exactly that with the included TYFA* fonts.
They were not recognized in the same folder as the article or in texmf-fonts/fonts/data/tyfa, even after several force reloads; they were only found when I added them to the system font directory (~/Library/Fonts on MacOS).

did you also do mtxrun --generate beforehand?

I didn’t because that’s part of the install script, isn’t it? I run that more or less daily.

But it doesn’t change anything – deleted the fonts from Library, they’re still in texmf-fonts, --generate, --reload --force => fonts not found.

Since my texmf-fonts is a symlink (to avoid the same tree in several installations), I also checked if a “real” directory solves the problem – no.

No clue ... maybe --verbose helps ... i assume that mtxrun --generate 
shows the path being seen.
