I found that if $HOME/texmf/fonts/data was not explicitly included
in the OSFONTDIR environment variable, the fonts in that directory
did not show up.

Also, I tried a : and trailing // in the path as mentioned in another
post, but it made no difference.

John

Perhaps it is all just because the default $OSFONTDIR does not contain
~/.fonts ? I tried this:

  export OSFONTDIR=/usr/share/fonts:~/.fonts


Mine is:

   export OSFONTDIR='$HOME/.fonts//:/usr/share/fonts//'


Mine is (in setuptex)

OSFONTDIR="$HOME/.fonts;/usr/share/fonts;"
export OSFONTDIR

I had some troubles with OSFONTDIR and opentype fonts in the past. Perhaps 
I should use : and trailing // and test again.

Mine is: 

export OSFONTDIR='$HOME/.fonts//:/usr/share/fonts//'

I think the OSFONTDIR is unnecessary here, context will seach ~/texmf
anyway.

Thanks! This solved my problem:

  % mkdir -p ~/texmf/fonts/data
  % mv *.{pfb,afm} ~/texmf/fonts/data
  % export OSFONTDIR="$HOME/.fonts;$HOME/texmf/fonts/data"

Or, to keep all fonts under ~/.fonts , this also works:

  % mkdir -p ~/.fonts/tex
  % mv *.{pfb,afm} ~/.fonts/tex
  % mkdir -p ~/texmf/fonts
  % ln -s ~/.fonts/tex ~/texmf/fonts/data
  % export OSFONTDIR="$HOME/.fonts"

For some reason I was trying $HOME/context/tex/texmf/fonts/data
previously, which didn't work. But things are now working quite
nicely now -- thank you all.

Regards,

John
