I am the author of the FontPro scripts for the support of Adobe Minion Pro, Myriad Pro and Cronos Pro in (pdf)latex as well as the MdSymbol package (math symbols to fit Myriad Pro).

Problems with installation of MinionPro If you have problems with certain symbols such as $\epsilon$ and $\varepsilon$, you can try FontPro, which is based on the MinionPro package. |

Unable to compile TeXmaker 4.0.2 with MiKTeX 2.9 Did you save the file that you edited? I recently forgot that and had a similar error. |

Preview TikZ figure in AUCTeX? @XxXxX It works for me with a recent GNU Emacs and AUCTeX, and I cannot test on a Max. Could you check whether the variable preview-default-preamble is successfully changed? Load a TeX file and do C-h v preview-default-preamble. It should give you something like preview-default-preamble is a variable defined in preview.el.
Its value is ("\\RequirePackage["
("," . preview-default-option-list)
"]{preview}[2004/11/05]" "\\PreviewEnvironment{tikzpicture}") |

Problem getting MyriadPro package to work Just as a comment for future readers: starting with version 0.5 of MyriadPro, the onlytext option is set by default, i.e. the math fonts are not changed by default. |

Install OpenType fonts in Texlive @mafp Let's do it via PM. Please write me an email. Please let me know whether you understand German so I could copy/paste what I've written before. |

Install OpenType fonts in Texlive @mafp The Garamond files were written by the original MinionPro project team. My time is very limited at the moment and I am also not that much interested. The actual adaptation using MnSymbol shouldn't be hard so I could give some starting hints. |

PDFLaTeX Color Space Are you on a Linux machine? I found that the Linux version of the Acrobat Reader shows ugly colours for figures generated by R and RTikzDevice. The colours are fine in okular and in the Windows version of the Reader. |

Embedding fonts in PDFSkull seems to be available only as metafont so there is nothing you can easily do to prevent the bitmap font in your pdf. The symbols itself (as a bitmap) should be included, though. |

Is microtype-2.5 (beta-08) stable enough for production use? I just tried 2.5 and get Package microtype Warning: Loading generic settings for font family `MinionPro-OsF', although a style should have been defined by this (I checked that the corresponding configuration file is loaded) with a fairly minimal document. With 2.4, this warning/error is not present. I'll prepare a bug report. |

Why is there a large gap between imported png and caption? You could try the pdfcrop tool to remove automatically the white border of the input pdf. |

Spacing problem at chapter end What happens without the article option? Does the chapter start on a new page? How to avoid widows is explained in the TeX FAQ. |

Adobe Garamond and LaTeX (Linux) @Alex What do you think of Arno Pro? It features opticals and greek letters in contrast to Garamond Pro. Especially due to the latter, good math support shouldn't be too difficult with FontPro. I might find the time to look at in during the next 2 weeks. |

installing FontPro (support for Minion Pro, Myriad Pro, & Cronos Pro) with MiKTeX 2.9 Thanks for writing this. How did you install the LCDF typetools? As Windows binaries or in cygwin? It might also not be a good idea to create MinionPro and MyriadPro support files with the same folder. I'll check the clean command over holidays. |

Generating PDF/A-1b compliant documents using pdfx and pdfLaTeX @Jörg The errors are listed on the first page. I suppose that nothing is marked on the second page because the errors cannot be pointed to a visible spot in the document. |

Bar plots in sans serif font @typokurz My scripts are based on the project you mentioned and work well with any version of the fonts. I don't provide prepared metrics, though, so one has to use the bash scripts to create them. My MinionPro.sty is very similar to the original one, only small bug fixes and extensions. I'm sure, however, that the original MinionPro project doesn't provide any support for Myriad Pro. My MyriadPro support offers features similar to the ones of MinionPro including proper maths support and the functionality to use two different maths fonts in one document (with the setup above). |

pdf/a: Width information for rendered glyphs is inconsistent Did you use the preflight tool or did you "print" into a new pdf? |

Adobe Garamond and LaTeX (Linux) Can you upload the fonts on arxiv? As far as I know, only default fonts can be used. Furthermore, if you need math, the conversion and setup will be much more involved! Your best bet might be the adaptation of FontPro to Garamond (unfortunately, I don't have the time to assist much). |
