Actually, on a MacTeX-Mailing list, where I sought for help, I got the advice to use gwTeX, because the gta fonts are not included in MacTeX (and I used the version of end of 2007)...

Sorry for pushing this old thread but I have found some hints, why the problems mentioned appeared and I consider it useful to pass this information to other users (as I often get to threads in this list when searching for a problem via search engines).

To use gtamachoefler, gtamacdidot and the others, one needs to use gwTeX and not MacTeX (though both are based on TeXLive). On OS X you can easily install both distributions and switch back and forth in the systems preference pane (they don't conflict with each other). However, using gwTeX and gtamachoefler made even more problems regarding special characters (I am writing a thesis on Islam, so there are a lot of special characters...), so I will simply stick with XeTeX.

Actually, with recent versions of MacTeX, the gta font definitions are included.
