mkii and xetex with tl2008: invalid fontname errors

mkii and xetex with tl2008: invalid fontname errors

[Jesse Alama]

Using XeTeX and ConTeXt MkII with the TeX Live 2008 developer snapshot
(as of a few days ago), I run into a bunch of "invalid fontname" errors
when compiling some documents:

$ texmfstart texexec --xtx file.tex

Any idea what might be going on?

You probably need to install "tex-gyre" package. It might make sense
to add the fonts to scheme-context.

The tex-gyre package is installed.

Is this just a typo somewhere?  Apparently the only problem is the colon
in the font name.

Can you please send a minimal example that fails?

XeTeX has multiple ways of finding fonts (by name, by filename for
modern fonts, by filename for tfm fonts), and that's probably the
fallback (looking for tfm fonts). Colon needs to stay, it's just the
wrong "algorithm" that looks for fonts.

Hmm, perhaps the tex-gyre fonts are incorrectly installed?

Do you have the file texgyrepagella-italic.otf? What does
    kpsewhich texgyrepagella-italic.otf
return you? Or put in other words - do you have
fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyrepagella-italic.otf?

You can also try to reinstall or update packages. I'm not sure how
well packaging works, but texgyre has now been added to
scheme-context.

The package seems to be installed just fine, so I'm stumped.

Does it only complain or does it fail to work?

I suspect what the error could be (harmless, though it makes sense to
fix it), but I only think that error reporting got more verbose since
it works here despite many warnings. Outside of TL (probably some
branch of xetex trunk + latest context) I don't get that warning.

Maybe Jonathan knows more. The enteresting thing is that those
messages don't even show up in log file. But log does show that some
files like sort-lan.mkii (and some others) are a bit problematic in
respect to (not being) UTF-8.

% \enableregime[utf]
% \mainlanguage[sl]
% \starttext
%     \ccaron\index{\ccaron\space 1}
%     \Ccaron\index{\Ccaron\space 1}
%     Ä<8d>\index{Ä<8d> 2}
%     Ä<8c>\index{Ä<8c> 2}
%     \v c\index{\v c 3}
%     \v C\index{\v C 3}
%     \placeindex
% \stoptext

That should be

%     č\index{č 2}
%     Č\index{Č 2}

Looks like a change in kpathsea itself could be the 'cause. The
searches for these tfms are supposed to fail, so I guess there is
no actual problem, just more verbose complaining from kpathsea.

Best wishes,
Taco

Re: mkii and xetex with tl2008: invalid fontname errors

Taco:
> ... does it actually work, and can you explain why?

I don't get the "error" any more with that fix (and it's not an error anyway).

The problem is that if there is no "file:" prefix in font synonyms,
then ConTeXt asks for
     \font\whatever="texgyre-whatever:options"
and XeTeX first asks fontconfig, font not there, and then asks
kpathsea and kpathsea complains about "font not present". With
minimals I don't get that complaint printed out. It used to complain
in some other way some time ago, but let's forget that for a moment.

Then, since ConTeXt figures out that font doesn't exist, it asks for
    \font\whatever="[texgyge-whatever]:options"
and then XeTeX finds the font and ConTeXt uses it.

There's a third iteration asking for a font without quotes, but I
should check the exact order of those three attempts, and maybe
attempt without quotes is not needed any more since Jonathan fixed the
behaviour of quoted filenames to also look for kpathsea fonts, not
only system fonts if I recall correctly.


If there is "file:" prefix, the first iteration is skipped, so it's
more efficient to load fonts.

We have fixed that (added "file:" in front of names) in number of font
definitions some time ago (most important being LM since it's really
used each time when one compiles a XeTeX document), but those
"palatino"/"times" synonyms were not fixed at the time of major
changes for some reason (overseen, me being lazy, it worked anyway?,
...  I don't quite remember).


However, there is still "problem" with "+trep" (a missing/unneeded
mapping, depends on how you treat it) in this font call:
    texgyrepagella-italic:+liga;+kern;mapping=tlig;+trep;

trep and tlig both happened to map to tex-text some time ago. Then I
asked Hans to optimize the behaviour a bit since some mappings of "
and ` were really cruel and lead to inability to use grave accents at
all. He removed some mappings, but left both tlig and trep there. In
luatex, tlig does a mapping of -- and --- and trep does a mapping of
apostrophe.

In XeTeX +tlig option in "features=default" gets replaced by
"mapping=tlig" which has all the three replacements (--, --- and ')
    font-ini.tex:    \remapfontfeature tlig          yes  mapping=tlig
while +trep is passed unmodified to xetex. So the behaviour is
inconsistent in LuaTeX and XeTeX (no reason why it should be), but it
just happens that nobody cares/complains. The second option would be
useful if one really wanted to recall all the other TeX ligatures and
replacements back (`, ``, ", >>, <<, `<, `> or whatever else is
there), else I think that having two options is really not needed.

tlig and trep used to have all the other old TeX replacements &
ligatures there, but I asked Hans to remove most of them exactly for
the reason mentioned above (grave accents were gone).

XeTeX just happens not to complain about "+trep", but that "+trep"
should be removed one day. Maybe just
 font-ini.tex:    \remapfontfeature trep          yes  [empty]

As far as I can tell this is only a complaint, in the sense that the
XeTeX run finishes and produces a PDF.  Is that what you mean?  I'm not
sure whether those invalid fontnames errors are having an effect.

Yes. Though this should be fixed now anyway.
