The configuration is described in the quite complete documentation<br>
of texlive <br>
<br>

But as David wrote, you only need this if you want to use xelatex<br>
and call fonts in the texmf tree by font name. For lualatex and<br>
pdflatex it is not relevant.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Ulrike,</div><div><br></div><div>What David is recommending is NOT a part of TeXLive documentation.<br></div><div><br></div><div>What is recommended there, buried in Section 3.4.4 of 41 pages of documentation is:</div><div><br></div><div><ol class="enumerate1" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times New Roman";font-size:medium;background-color:rgb(255,255,224)"><li class="enumerate" id="gmail-x1-33002x1">Copy the <span class="ec-lmtt-10" style="font-family:monospace,monospace">texlive-fontconfig.conf </span>file to <span class="ec-lmtt-10" style="font-family:monospace,monospace">/etc/fonts/conf.d/09-texlive.conf</span>.</li><li class="enumerate" id="gmail-x1-33004x2">Run <span class="ec-lmtk-10" style="font-family:monospace,monospace">fc-cache -fsv</span>.</li></ol><div><font color="#000000" face="Times New Roman" size="3">.. but even then several question remain:</font></div></div><div><br></div><div>1.
