In type-buy.dat you will find the command line arguments for texfont and
myriad:
--so=adobe/myriad --weight=400 --width=600 MyriadMM
--so=adobe/myriad --weight=700 --width=600 MyriadMM
--so=adobe/myriad --weight=400 --width=600 MyriadMM-It
--so=adobe/myriad --weight=700 --width=600 MyriadMM-It
--ve=adobe --co=myriad --so=adobe/myriad --ma --in MyriadMM-we*
--ve=adobe --co=myriad --so=adobe/myriad --ma --in MyriadMM-It-we*
--ve=adobe --co=myriad --so=adobe/myriad --sl=* MyriadMM-we*
--ve=adobe --co=myriad --so=adobe/myriad --ca=* MyriadMM-we*
the typescript file entries look like:
\starttypescript [sans] [myriad] [name]
\definefontsynonym [Sans] [Myriad]
\definefontsynonym [SansBold] [MyriadBold]
\definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [MyriadItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [MyriadBoldItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SansSlanted] [MyriadItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SansBoldSlanted] [MyriadBoldItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SansCaps] [Myriad]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [sans] [myriad] [texnansi,ec,8r]
\definefontsynonym
[Myriad] [\typefaceencoding-myriadmm-weight-400-width-600]
[encoding=\typefaceencoding]
\definefontsynonym
[MyriadBold] [\typefaceencoding-myriadmm-weight-700-width-600]
[encoding=\typefaceencoding]
\definefontsynonym
[MyriadItalic] [\typefaceencoding-myriadmm-it-weight-400-width-600]
[encoding=\typefaceencoding]
\definefontsynonym [MyriadBoldItalic]
[\typefaceencoding-myriadmm-it-weight-700-width-600]
[encoding=\typefaceencoding]
\stoptypescript
combined with lucida one gets (in a style file):
\definetypeface [mainface] [ss]
[sans] [myriad] [default] [encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [mainface] [rm]
[serif] [lucida] [default] [encoding=texnansi,rscale=.9]
\definetypeface [mainface] [tt]
[mono] [cmr] [default] [encoding=default, rscale=1.05]
\definetypeface [mainface] [mm]
[math] [lucida] [default] [encoding=texnansi,rscale=.9]
When i bought those fonts, i found out that it was a 400 HFL crappy font
distribution with missing amfm files; i finally tracked down the right
files with google (search for the filenames);
Fabrice compiled the conversion binaries for windows, so these are now part
of fptex an dshould work ok with texfont.
