Now that works! The error message went away. The program compiles a pdf file using the Minion Pro font. But the same test.tex program in the parent directory came up with the same error. So long as I run context etc. in that new directory, including my own document book.tex I get good results. When I move to another directory the world goes crazy again.

I strongly suggest to you to install latest suite (was standalone was minimals ) into a separate dir (ie /opt/luatex/suite-2011-09-29) and eventually copy the fonts you need into that folder.

It's better to keep separate "system fonts" from ConTeXt. Some fonts can be updated/moved when the system make an upgrade, different OS have different font paths and so on. Almost all of the time the better solution is to keep the fonts under texmf-project: you project will survive if you change Linux release/distro or pass to Windows/MacOS. -- luigi ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread

If you put your fonts under tex/texmf/fonts/opentype i.e tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/adobe/minion as I suggested on a prev. email then every time you update the suite, the fonts *will be deleted* . This is because the way operate rsynch is to "synch" the folders but not tex/texmf-project On the other side, the locations are good if you will not update the suite --- that to say, if you have another project just download another suite . So we can have for example project1 => /opt/luatex/suite-2011-09-20-prj1 project2 => /opt/luatex/suite-2011-09-30-prj2 and so on or project1 => /opt/luatex/suite-2011-09-20/tex/texmf-project/prj1 project2 => /opt/luatex/suite-2011-09-20/tex/texmf-project/prj2 -- luigi ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread
