Thanks David.
This shows the problem. It does not compile correctly and this is the
list of packages:
*File List*
article.cls 2014/09/29 v1.4h Standard LaTeX document class
size10.clo 2014/09/29 v1.4h Standard LaTeX file (size option)
fontspec.sty 2017/01/02 v2.5c Font selection for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
expl3.sty 2016/11/21 v6760 L3 programming layer (loader)
expl3-code.tex 2016/11/21 v6760 L3 programming layer
l3xdvipdfmx.def
xparse.sty 2016/11/21 v6760 L3 Experimental document command parser
fontspec-xetex.sty 2017/01/02 v2.5c Font selection for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
fontenc.sty
tuenc.def 2016/12/11 v2.0a Standard LaTeX file
fontspec.cfg
***********
However when I add
\setmainfont[Ligatures=TeX,Mapping=tex-text]{Linux Libertine O}
it compiles correctly.
My first problem was after Beamer gave me a problem. In Beamer I cannot
add this - or can I do something similarly?
Regards
Johann

"Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows:
yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and
afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of
our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are
healed." Isaiah 53:4,5
