Urm, I must have something wrong here. I updated the TeX i package. I
already had Fondu installed (/usr/local/bin/fondu). The directory
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.gwtex/fonts/truetype/gtamacfonts/hoefler is
populated with a number of .ttf fonts.
I took the following LaTeX file:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{geometry}
\title{Test}
\author{Paul Vickers}
\date{December}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Waist high}
\subsection{Walking through}
I've always found it difficult to walk through treacle.
\end{document}
and added
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{gtamachoefler}
to the preamble, thus:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{gtamachoefler}
\title{Test}
\author{Paul Vickers}
\date{December}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Waist high}
\subsection{Walking through}
I've always found it difficult to walk through treacle.
\end{document}
Now when I run the .tex file through LaTeX (under TeXShop), I get lots
of font creation errors and the PDF output is blank. Here's the console log:
"This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.4-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5)
\write18 enabled.
