  1. Any #xelatex experts out there? I am having a VERY weird experience with fontspec.

    I write

    \setsansfont{NameOfFont}

    And everything works as it should. Except when "NameOfFont" is the font I actually want, when everything *except* \textbf works correctly. Then it just renders normal weight text instead.

    Nothing in the log file suggests any weirdness.

    If I explicitly spell out the path and the filenames for all the weights then it works correctly; but I want other people to use this so that's not really a viable option.

    The most confounding thing is that it *was* working, and I do not know what changed. My best guess is that some cache somewhere needs to be blown away... but Xelatex doesn't use a font cache.... I think?

    Any ideas?

    p.s. using a Mac.

    #latex #fonts #fontspec #xetex

  2. Later I used and , because it was easier to handle at some parts. And I use LibO unto this day - it‘s an important tool for my daily work and I couldn‘t do it especially without .

    But for texts I tend to use and use for output. Maybe i could as well use pandoc to generate some files and see what I get out of it?

    In any case: If ever had to write anything regarding humanities again, I would pick it up again.

  3. Later I used #LibreOffice and #Zotero, because it was easier to handle at some parts. And I use LibO unto this day - it‘s an important tool for my daily work and I couldn‘t do it especially without #Calc.

    But for texts I tend to use #Markdown and use #LibreOffice for output. Maybe i could as well use pandoc to generate some #XeTeX files and see what I get out of it?

  7. I came across this factory yesterday in Holmen, Wisconsin. I wonder if they do Unicode typesetting there. #XeTeX #TeX

  9. Si vous avez des infos sur "comment utiliser des caractères non-ASCII dans un environnement verbatim en (|La|Xe)TeX dans un beamer", je prends ! Je suis actuellement en train de m'arracher les cheveux dessus.
    Plus précisément, je dois présenter, dans un beamer, du code Lean4 (donc présentant des caractères pas ASCII, genre des lettres grecques , des flèches, ,, …). Pour l'instant : j'utilise #XeTeX, le package verbatim et j'arrive pas à définir la font à utiliser.
    :boost_requested:
    P.S.: j'utilise pas listings parce que la syntaxe Lean4 est pas définie et que ça a l'air de casser beamer.

  23. Quelqu'un pour me rappeler comment, avec #XeTex, faire en sorte que mes espaces insécables soient reconnus et gérés correctement (au lieu d'afficher "ă ") ?
