(Question split off from here.)
If you try to use the aeguill package (which adds some guillemets to the ae fonts) with Babel and Hebrew:
\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage[english,hebrew]{babel}
\usepackage{aeguill}
\begin{document}
Blah.
\end{document}
you get:
LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `HE8/aer/m/n' undefined (Font)
using `HE8/cmr/m/n' instead on input line 2.("C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINXP\Application Data\MiKTeX\2.9\tex\gen eric\babel\he8cmr.fd")) ! Corrupted NFSS tables. wrong@fontshape ...message {Corrupted NFSS tables} error@fontshape else let f... l.6 \begin{document}
How can this be overcome?
Notes:
- The guillemets are not so interesting for English of course.
- The commented-out inputenc line is what you'd need to actually insert any Hebrew, but it's not necessary to trigger the error.
- Suggestions to switch to XeLaTeX are not relevant.
For the sake of completeness, here's an MWE with guillemets:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage[english,hebrew]{babel} \usepackage{aeguill} \begin{document} \selectlanguage{hebrew} שלום עולם. \selectlanguage{english} Some guillemets: « Le quicqe brun Foxe a jumpee sur le laizie Chien. » ... these should look nicer with \texttt{aeguill}. \end{document}
