#30745: xdvipdfmx not able to use /System/Library/*.dfont fonts, freetype --with- old-mac-fonts involved ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: pguyot@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.1 Keywords: | Port: texlive-bin freetype ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by dports@…): Replying to [comment:9 pguyot@…]:
Freetype should be able to handle dfont files on non-Mac builds. Yet, without --with-old-mac-fonts, freetype does not return the proper font to xdvipdfmx as shown by the tests I ran.
Yes, I see that now (I happened to try it with a font that did work correctly.) I'm still surprised that it doesn't work...
If texlive-bin is compiled as on non-Mac (i.e. as in trunk), xdvipdfmx fails in cidtype2.c, line 969 :
Right, that definitely should be fixed. The patch I provided will take care of that (or will be unnecessary), if we can get the freetype problem resolved one way or the other. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/30745#comment:10> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
