Problem getting output
Dear all, When I try to typeset a file using XeConTeXt METAFONT is called and goes into a loop trying to make the fonts you see below. I have made a clean TeX installation from the MacTeX site but the result is the same. As an alternative I installed Minimals and created an MinXeConTeXt.engine in TeXShop. Using this I get a pdf with all my fonts without a problem. I uninstalled TeX completely but with the re- installation of MacTeX 2008 I get the result below. I would be most grateful for advice on what to do to put things right. Thanks in advance, Charlie Doherty TeXExec | processing document 'N0v2007.tex' TeXExec | no ctx file found TeXExec | tex processing method: context TeXExec | TeX run 1 TeXExec | writing option file N0v2007.top TeXExec | using randomseed 468 TeXExec | tex engine: xetex TeXExec | tex format: cont-en This is XeTeXk, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.999.6 (Web2C 7.5.7) %&-line parsing enabled. entering extended mode (./N0v2007.tex ConTeXt ver: 2008.05.21 15:21 MKII fmt: 2009.2.17 int: english/ english language : language en is active system : cont-new loaded (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-new.tex systems : beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.tex (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkii) (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-mtx.tex)) system : cont-old loaded (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-old.tex loading : Context Old Macros ) system : cont-fil loaded (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-fil.tex loading : Context File Synonyms ) system : cont-sys loaded (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-config/tex/context/user/cont-sys.tex (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/type-tmf.tex) (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/type-otf.tex) (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/type-xtx.tex)) bodyfont : 12pt rm is loaded language : patterns en->ec:ec->1->2:3 uk->ec:ec->2->2:3 de-

I think it should use lmtypewriter10-regular.ttf in the texmf-context\fonts\truetype\hoekwater\lm directory. It's a ttf file. Maybe XeTeX tries to find the tfm file? BTW, Why not use lmmono10-regular? Yue Wang

I don't really know what happens and have no time to jump into it right now, but that ttf is never used by context, I know that for a fact. Isn't the cause simply a non-installed Latin Modern package? Best wishes, Taco
Dear Yue and Taco, Thank you both for replying. Here are the fonts that I am trying to get from my source file (no problem using Minimals but when I use MacTeX installation that is when I get the problem). These are fonts for Irish Gaelic ancient and modern. Below is a snippet that I get from the Minimals output. But MacTeX tries to make Latin Modern instead of giving me the output below. This is not urgent since I can use Minimals but I would still like to put MacTeX right. I have since uninstalled all of my TeX including minimals. I have deleted all the Latin Modern Fonts and did a clean install of MacTeX . The problem is still there.
