[XeTeX] changing font location

[Tschijnmo Tschau]

Dear Peter

Thank you so much for your help! After used the fc-cache -vv I found
that I made a stupid mistake in the font configuration file by having
put newlines between the <dir> </dir> tags and the path to my fonts.
Now the problem has been solved, thank you!

Regards
Jin-Mo Zhao

You can run fc-cache with -v or -vv so see whether all the fonts are found and treated correctly by the system. You can, you *should* use fc-list or fc-match to check whether the font service finds the font. If it does, then fontspec should do as well.
