Hi all,
I know that there was earlier a thread dealing with this subject…. However I needed to typeset a title in a typeface with a medieval look. One of the choices is “Maximilian” a ttf font (free font).
I put the font in texmf-fonts/data.
The mtxrun --script font --list --info --all maximilian gives:
mtx-fonts | mapping : maximilian
mtx-fonts | fontname: maximilian
mtx-fonts | fullname: maximilian
mtx-fonts | filename: Maximilian.ttf
mtx-fonts | family : maximilian
mtx-fonts | weight : normal
mtx-fonts | style : normal
mtx-fonts | width : normal
mtx-fonts | variant : normal
mtx-fonts | subfont :
mtx-fonts | fweight : conflict: book
mtx-fonts |
mtx-fonts | gsub features:
mtx-fonts |
mtx-fonts | feature script languages
mtx-fonts |
mtx-fonts | tlig all all
mtx-fonts | trep all all
I tried in a classical way:
\starttypescript[serif][medieval]
\definefontsynonym[serif][file:Maximilian][features=default]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript[medieval]
\definetypeface[Maximilian][rm][serif][medieval][default]
\stoptypescript
\usetypescript[medieval]
\setupbodyfont[Maximilian,rm,12pt]
I tried also the new approach
\definefontfamily[Medieval][rm][Maximilian][features=default]
\setupbodyfont[Medieval,12pt]
In both cases I end up with an empty page, because the font is not fount. — What do I miss?
