I tried adding Hebrew date to my document using \today
as in the code below.
\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\newfontfamily\hebrewfont[Script=Hebrew]{David CLM}
\setdefaultlanguage[calendar=hebrew]{hebrew}
\begin{document}
\today
\end{document}
However, this code doesn't compile with XeLateX. Instead, the process terminates with the following error.
xdvipdfmx:fatal: This font using the "seac" command for accented characters
From searching online it seems to be related to type1 fonts, as xdvipdfmx
can't work with them. However, the Hebrew fonts I know are type1 (from Culmus).
Is there any way to circumvent this problem, and display the Hebrew date properly?
