Seems we never posted the conclusion about this problem: XeTeX simply doesn't work with the old Mac Type 1 Postscript fonts on Mac OS X (Leopard or before). The reason is that these old fonts store their data in the resource fork, which Unix utilities like XeTeX don't see. Only TrueType or OpenType

Oh well let's try again in that case ;-) I ran the first test script and it gives the same error (see log 1). Then I went back to Wolfgang's recommended script and replaced the second typescript block with your suggested lines (the bolditalic font is called Eco302BoldItalic, by the way). This prod

Hi Mojca, Not quite there yet. I did manage to install the standalone ConTeXt without problems after changing the line 18 of that file. I also found the same error in setuptex, which of course prevented me from getting the right new mktexlsr and texexec onto the path... Anyway that's solved now a

Roland, I forgot two things so I should better mention some before you ask. First: welcome to the ConTeXt community. Second: you need a *recent enough* ConTeXt (anything between october 07-january 08), but if you take the latest one, then you also need the future version of LM :) And you need a r

Hi, I am fairly new to both ConTeXt (and XeTeX) but I've already been very impressed with the active user community and the amount of documentation available, as well as with the sheer userfriendliness of ConTeXt when compared to LaTeX. Now I'm trying to get into fonts, but activating a Postscript
