Hi Peter,

>>> \setmainfont [
>>>    ExternalLocation=/Users/will/Fonts/Vera/,
>>>    BoldFont=VeraBd.ttf,
>>>    ItalicFont=VeraIt.ttf,
>>>    BoldItalicFont=VeraBI.ttf,
>>>  ] {Vera.ttf}

that is a solution, that I would use only as last opportunity.

Is there such an environment variable also under windows?
