I don't have Mac OS but Windows and miktex, so I don't know how fonts are installed in your OS but you should surely try to find it out. If you system can't find the font xetex will probably have problems too. > > My minimal example is: > (...) > !

Either because it is not correctly installed, or because (at least in miktex this could be the case) you have to update the font cache with fc-cache -f first, or because the name or the font file you used is wrong (on my pc "Scheherazade" works fine but loads ScheherazadeRegOT.ttf). -- Ulrike Fischer -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
