[XeTeX] XeTeX 0.994a and fontspec 1.10 on Mac OS X and Lucida Sans fonts from Java

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

I am not sure whether my printer is now broken, or pdfTeX, or the way  
Mac OS X 10.4.6 prints, but the Type 3 font (dijkstra) I use for my  
address block in personal letters comes out printed with filled areas  
and the glyphs do not stick to the baseline. On screen it's OK,  
except in Adobe Reader 7 (tooltips show some nonsense as my eMail  
address).

So I tried XeLaTeX -- on screen and on paper perfect (and in Adobe  
Reader, too), maybe because a TTF version of dijkstra is used. But  
the real problem is with the Lucida Sans family of fonts that comes  
with others with Java (/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/ 
Versions/{1.3.1,1.4.2,1.5.0}/Home/lib/fonts/):

	  \usepackage{textcomp}
	%  \usepackage{eurofont,graphicx,lucida}
	  \usepackage{lucida}
	\fi
	\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}

LucidaSans-Typewriter and Lucida Bright are fine, but Lucida Sans  
leads to:

	(That makes 100 errors; please try again.)


There is also amongst the PostScript 3 fonts a problem: MonaLisa- 
Recut is the PostScript name, ITC Mona Lisa is the family name. When  
I use the family name I get complaints like (only one regular variant  
exist):

I have put the versions I use into /Library/Fonts. The fontconfig  
systems knows the font locations in /System/... because I can see  
fonts.cache-1 files.

(It's also a nice exercise to make a LaTeX class file, from KOMA  
family, with font loading work in both worlds.)
