Hi Jonathan,
The simplest of LaTeX files ...
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\begin{document}
$
a
$
\end{document}
fails on the mathematics, with an error:
! Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts.
l.7 $
Here's the full log-file:
[GlenLivet:~/Documents/tests] rossmoor% xelatex xtest.tex
This is XeTeXk, Version 3.14159-2.1-0.5 (Web2C 7.5.2)
%&-line parsing enabled.

! Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts.

Tracing with \tracingall reveals nothing untoward at that point.
The error goes away upon changing the initial font-size from 12pt
to TeX's default of 10pt. At 11pt the error remains.
Using
xelatex -kpathsea-debug=-1 xtest.tex
I cannot recognise anything that indicates a problem.
Needless to say, there is no such problem when using
other engines: latex, pdflatex, elatex
The message is compiled into TeX engines:
[GlenLivet:~/Documents/tests] rossmoor% strings `kpsewhich tex.pool` |
grep Insuff
47Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts
50Math formula deleted: Insufficient extension fonts
which sort of explains why tracing doesn't help.
All the best,
Ross
