I can't seem to get the Garamond font to work. I tried the .zip file from here to no avail. No error messages. I extracted its contents to a folder called 'package' which is in the same folder as my tex file.
I'm trying the following commands:
\usepackage[t1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{garamond}
...
\fontfamily{ugm}\selectfont
...
The \fontfamily{ppl} works for palantino though :S
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

garamond.styfiles out there (ctan.org/search/…). Can you link to exactly what you downloaded? – Joseph Wright♦ Aug 15 '12 at 10:57ggmas family name notugm. Beside this: you should make an effort to write better questions. Don't sent code snippets but small complete examples. Say how you compile. Say what doesn't work (did you computer explode or what is the problem?). And show the log-file. – Ulrike Fischer Aug 15 '12 at 13:29
