When I use the command \setsansfont{Jost*} I get exactly the sme error,
however, in the following sample file I have used an alternative syntax
and this works just fine.
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\begin{document}
\setmainfont{Minion Pro}
\setsansfont{Jost-500-Medium.otf}[
Mapping=tex-text,Scale=MatchLowercase,
BoldFont = Jost-700-Bold.otf ,
ItalicFont = Jost-500-MediumItalic.otf,
BoldItalicFont = Jost-700-BoldItalic.otf]
\LARGE
\sffamily this is an example \textit{italics}, \textbf{bold},
and \textbf{\textit{bold italics}}.
\end{document}
Hope this helps.
