Hi, thanks for the help. I wasn't aware of xetex's capabilities to use systemwide installed fonts. Including them like this works ootb (I already had these fonts installed):
\font\rm="ScalaSans-Regular" at 14 pt \rm Hello World! There is one drawback though: I have generated all kinds of virtual fonts, a fake SmallCaps font etc. All tfm, vf, afm files in all kinds of different encodings are in their respective folders (and they are all found with kpsewhich). As I'm using them for years now I really would like to get it working in xetex with TeX's default mechanism (the main reason for the switch to xetex is its utf-8 support). Otherwise I'd be stuck with the supplied PostScript fonts only. If xetex is capable of using kpathsea, is there a way to debug the problem by finding, which part of the program is stuck where?
