Dear all,
Recently, I installed XeTeX and it is working well for many Korean
fonts(true type and otf).
By the way, there are several Korean fonts whose name started #, for
example, #HeadlineA.dfont. It is Darafork True type font and its real
name is "#HeadLineA Regular". When I tested it in AAT-info.tex, I got
error messages. Is there a way to use those font in XeTeX?
%AAT-info.tex
\def\fontname{#HeadLineA Regular}
% Some other examples....
%\def\fontname{Apple Chancery}
%\def\fontname{Zapfino}
%\def\fontname{Hoefler Text Italic}
%\def\fontname{Minion MM Roman} % Note that \XeTeXcountglyphs fails
with this!
\font\testfont="\fontname" at 10pt
\nopagenumbers
...
error message:
This is XeTeXk, Version 3.14159-2.1-0.85 (Web2C 7.5.2)
%&-line parsing enabled.
entering extended mode
(./AAT-info.tex
! Illegal parameter number in definition of \fontname.

l.1 \def\fontname{#H
eadLineA Regular}
?
Thank you.
