It is questionable whether other mappings are useful generally or whether they serve just to a single person. As rule in TeX Live, packages supporting commercial fonts only are not included, that's why I have not published my mapping because it was tested with commercial fonts only. If you think that a map may be useful for some free fonts, I will make it and publish on CTAN.
It seems strange to me that you are not able to use TECkit on Linux. I do it regularly and before it was included in TeX Live, I even compiled it from sources obtained from SIL, even from its publicly available svn repository. It always worked without any problem, both on i386 and x86_64. > Gareth. > >> >> 2013/7/12 Gareth Hughes <[email protected]>: >> > Hi all! >> > >> > I am using Gill Sans MT for headings in a document that I'm setting.
