Hi Adam,

sure, you've mentioned AGaramondPro.

But I have the AGaramond+Expert fonts (Type1) installed in my texmf tree with Walther Schmidts TFM and VF files (see the padxxxx-files in the typescript I've sent).

http://www.dante.de/CTAN/fonts/metrics/w-a-schmidt/pad.zip
(or in general but German http://home.vr-web.de/was/fonts.html)


And this is the crucial point: for theses files provide e.g. optimized (German) kerning information (and more) I really don't want to miss them!
And I have absolutely no idea how to access theses files.

Isn't is possible when processing with XeTeX to continue using those precious hand-made virtual fonts?

 Hi Steffen,

 You're pretty close. It's best not to rewrite your old scripts, rather,
 to make a new type-enc style script to replace your existing [serif]
 [agaramond][ec] script. This way, when changing engines, it's a simple
 step of changing the (default, perhaps?) encoding...

 \starttypescript [serif] [agaramond] [uc] % XeTeX and Unicode is a happy
 combination
    \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Regular]

...
