[XeTeX] two questions

Dear Mojca,

Thank you for your concern on my problem.

Here are the results of the tests:
1. run it using xdvipdfmx and one of the commercial font - CFF:Invalid  
character error, no output

dalyoung$ xetex -output-driver="xdvipdfmx -E -d 4 -V 5" test-font.tex
This is XeTeX, Version 3.141592-2.2-0.996 (Web2C 7.5.6)
entering extended mode
(./test-font.tex [1] )

2. run it using xdv2pdf and one of the commercial font - warnings but  
a  good output.

3. run it using xdvipdfmx but don't use the commercial font - no error  
and a good output.

Hence, I suppose that xdvipdfmx had a problem to show some commercial  
fonts in Leopard environment.

I did more tests.

4. I add \starttext and \stoptext to see what happened.
    a) I defined fonts using \font\A="   ". It worked well if I didn't  
use the problematic fonts.
	The greek capitals, indices, and exponents of math expressions are  
also good.
    b) I used type script file for font definition in which math font  
was defined as "...[modern][modern]" as you suggested. There is no  
error at all if I didn't use the problematic fonts in the text, but  
some of greek capitals are not appeared. Exponents and indices are  
appeared as before.
    c) To define a font using a command "\font\A= " is OK unless I did  
use it in the text.

5. After modifying tex.rb(remove the second option of  
"runoptions[xetex]..."), I run texexec --xtx file.tex(it didn't use  
the type script file). It run and gave the output in which greek  
capitals and math expressions were displayed correctly. There were  
some warnings about the lm fonts as you said before.

...

However, some of greek capitals were not displayed at all and numbers  
and symbols(like ?!...) were dispalyed in other characters if I used  
the typescript file in which math font is defined.


I hope that this may help to point out my problem. I think that I  
upgrade to Leopard too early.

Thank you again.
Best regards,

Dalyoung
