Using Minion Pro with Classicthesis

Question

Good afternoon, I bought Minion Pro fonts (regular and italics) in order to use them with a classicthesis document. And following the instructions you gave me recently, I run with Xelatex but it did not work. Where do I have to put the following command ? \setmainfont{Minion Pro}

I think there is an issue in my preamble. May you examine it, please?

Answer 1

Macs have used unicode fonts for years. I'd try to isolate your problem by setting up a simple document like the one below. Check that it compiles and displays the font(s) correctly, then incorporate the settings into your file(s).

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}

\setmainfont[Ligatures=TeX]{Minion Pro}


\begin{document}

The quick brown fox \dots{}.

\end{document}

Answer 2

I modified my preamble, following many suggestions you made. Therefore, this is my new preamble and... it works nice :
