xelatex so I'm just confused. I open the font in fontbook and export the
font; tar/gzip the resulting directory and transfer to linux.  Maybe
fontbook's export converts it from a xelatex-readable format to one thats
not.

If no one has any other ideas, I'll buy the font again and hope for the
best.
thanks,
