I've downloaded an .otf font (specifically one called Dalelands Uncial
) that I would like to use in a document. I've double-clicked on the file and selected install, so that it now sits in my ~/Library/Fonts
folder on my Mac and Font Book claims the file is installed.
I thought that running LuaLaTeX on the following minimal example would now allow me to access the font, but it doesn't work.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont[
Path = /Users/<myname>/Library/Fonts,
Extension = .otf,
Ligatures = TeX
]{Dalelands Uncial}
\begin{document}
Some sample text.
\end{document}
(This is my attempt to replicate what is suggested in the first answer to this question.)
I'm told that "DalelandsUncial" cannot be found. Is it the space in the name causing a problem?
{Dalelands Unical}
part.luaotfload-tool --update
might be necessaryluaotfload-tool --update
and I still get the same error.~/Library/Fonts
. Your document, after removingPath=...
andExtension=...
compiles without problems (LuaTeX triggers a run ofluaotfload-tool
the first time).
