Attempting to resurrect a TeX project last updated in 2009, I am running into problems accessing the URW Garamond fonts.  The source line reads

  * \usepackage[urw-garamond]{mathdesign}

and the diagnostic is :

Referring to https://latex.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3778, I then tried (from the TeX Live 2018 command line)

  * C:\Users\Philip Taylor.Fujitsu-PC>getnonfreefonts-sys -a

but was told :

> 'getnonfreefonts-sys' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
> operable program or batch file.

M'aidez, svp.
