I have latex (.tex) files that I want to work with on Windows 10, but I received an error from latex, the error is: File `MinionPro.sty 'not found.

It seems to me that I don't have the MinionPro.sty package, I looked for it all over the internet but I found nothing, please if you have an answer, please help me find this package or contact me give an IDE name which contains by default all latex packages thank you for your help sir / madam

  • Minion refers to a font which is afaik a commercial font. Have you tried using a different font? Commented May 28, 2020 at 13:06

If you're using Ubuntu, you can use the command

sudo apt search minionpro

For me, this gives the output

Sorting... Done

texlive-fonts-extra/focal,focal,now 2019.202000218-1 all [installed]
  TeX Live: Additional fonts

Suggesting that if you download the package texlive-fonts-extra, you will automatically download the minionpro font.

I'm not sure about the Windows equivalent, but maybe you can just look for an additional fonts package all the same.

EDIT: is this useful to you? https://ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/minionpro

  • This file github.com/henrikgit/MPro-Installation-Guide-GitHub/blob/master/… suggets you check your Adobe Profile folder to find the .otf fonts in \Resource\Font

AFAIK MionionPro was made public domain domain by Adobe years ago but recent versions of Adobe do not have it in their Resource folder. It's still possible to download earlier versions from e.g. https://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/otherversions/ and copy the .otf files (MinionPro-BoldIt.otf etc) into a suitable local folder like \texmf-local\fonts\opentype

Once they are there, doubleclick on each to install them into Windows.
