Linux Libertine glyphs

Post by nitram »

hi,
in any howto, manual, doc, ... it says that the Linux Libertine font is supported by the TeX Live system natively. It works all fine, but whats about all the nice glyphs like:
{\Huge\useTextGlyph{fxl}{Tux}} = "tux-logo" or the
\xllogo = "linuxlibertine-logo" and so on?
it doesn't work for me (tried several options).
any ideas?

thx

nitram

Build a minimal working example (MWE) and attach the according log file to your next post. I have no problem with the following code.

Code: Select all

\listfiles
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{libertine}

\begin{document}
\Huge
\useTextGlyph{fxl}{Tux}
\xllogo
\end{document}

Best regards and welcome to the board

nitram: You could of course try xelatex and use this kind of code:

Code: Select all

% 5. Ajuste de Fuentes. Libertine e IM Fell Types.
%--------------------------------------------------------------- 
\usepackage{xltxtra,url}
\PassOptionsToPackage{no-math}{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\setromanfont{Linux Libertine O}
\defaultfontfeatures{Scale=MatchLowercase,RawFeature={+locl},Mapping=tex-text}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
\setmainfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Linux Libertine O}
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Linux Libertine O}
\setsansfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Linux Biolinum O}
\setmonofont[Mapping=tex-text]{Courier New}
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text, Numbers=OldStyle]{Linux Libertine O}
\defaultfontfeatures{Numbers=OldStyle, Colour=888888}
\fontspec{Linux Libertine O}
Hope it helps.
