Not really better:

http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/startfont-gara.pdf

There are now 3 pdf-files:

http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/startfont-gara.pdf      -> \startfont ... \stopfont
http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/simplefont-gara.pdf     -> \setmainfont[gara]
http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/simplefont-garamond.pdf -> \setmainfont[garamond]

The 3 ttf files come from an MS-Office installation.
