Dear LyX-users,
I downloaded the font AnnSton from here
http://ftp.nluug.nl/textproc/tex-archive/fonts/initials/
Then I put all these files in the same directory as my .lyx file.
This in the preamble:
\input AnnSton.fd
This somewhere in my document (a LaTeX inset):
{\fontsize{60pt}{72pt}\usefont{U}{AnnSton}{xl}{n}
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z}
Now, LyX gives me this error:
Font U/AnnSton/xl/n/60=AnnSton at 60.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not
...ze{60pt}{72pt}\usefont{U}{AnnSton}{xl}{n}
I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `I\font<same font id>=<substitute font name>'.
Seems like it doesn't find the AnnSton.tfm, which is also in the current
directory?
Then, when I export this file to LaTeX, and run LaTeX on it, it does work!
Can anybody perhaps explain how I can make the LyX version run?
Thanks in advance,
JeeBee.
Things should work ok if you install the fonts into the texmf or
localtexmf directory trees. See, for instance,
http://www.radamir.com/tex/ttf-tex.htm (scroll down to the section
"Installation of fonts for TeX and LaTeX").
