Thank you very much! That was indeed the problem. There were a bunch of 2010 Freefont files in the texmf directory, while I'd put the 2012 files in the system directory. I hadn't realized the old files were there. After removing them, all is well. I understand kpathsea, but learning the interactions with fontconfig is still to come! -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
