fonts disappear sometimes

fonts disappear sometimes

[Mikael Persson]

Dear list,

I just installed the latest minimals, together with Wolfgangs typescript files.

1) If I put the type-script files in
/home/mickep/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/third/typescripts/
then they are not used at all, although
luatools -find-file type-adobe.tex
gives
/home/mickep/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/third/typescripts/type-adobe.tex

2) If I put the type-adobe.{tex,mkii,mkiv} files in the same directory
as the document, then the following happens:

Compiling this minimal document (saved as mytest.tex):

\usetypescriptfile[type-adobe.tex] % load the typescript file
\usetypescript[minion] % load the typescript
\setupbodyfont[minion,12pt]
%\setupbodyfont[minion,14pt]
\starttext
Test
\stoptext

I get an empty document, but no error. If I comment the 12pt line and
uncomment the 14pt line then it works and I get the Minion fonts!!

I compile with

texexec --lua mytest.tex

Moreover,

mtxrun --script fonts --list | grep Minion

gives

minionprobold                       Minion Pro Bold
/home/mickep/.fonts/MinionPro-Bold.otf
minionproboldit                     MinionPro-BoldIt
/home/mickep/.fonts/MinionPro-BoldIt.otf
minionprobolditalic                 Minion Pro Bold Italic
/home/mickep/.fonts/MinionPro-BoldIt.otf
minionproit                         MinionPro-It
/home/mickep/.fonts/MinionPro-It.otf
minionproitalic                     Minion Pro Italic
/home/mickep/.fonts/MinionPro-It.otf
minionproregular                    Minion Pro Regular
/home/mickep/.fonts/MinionPro-Regular.otf

I can add by noting that I have the same problem for all other fonts I
try to install.

Thanks in advance for your help

Mikael

Sorry, but I answer this myself. When I compile with context
mytest.tex everything works. So, I guess I should compile with that
command instead from now on.
