Thanks, it helped me a lot.

After noticing that xdvipdfmx asked to have the proper font available, I 
called it again using the full path in which xetex is installed.
...And it worked!

I think it have may have conflicted with miktex also installed on the 
same laptop. I still have to figure out why the same config works nicely 
on the other computer though.

Thanks again.

Jacques.
