Inclusion of Font Package fails

Post by lynnlee »

Hello LaTeX Community,

I try to use font style "venturis2", "ebgaramond", and "garamond". But the source file can not be converted. The code is as follows.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,danish]{article}
\usepackage{ebgaramond}

\begin{document}
...
\end{document}

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,danish]{article}
\usepackage{venturis2}

\begin{document}
...
\end{document}
Both of the above codes do not work. I do not know what other codes I need to add. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Simply saying "does not work" is not useful here. An adequate problem description consists of a self-contained and minimal example along with either error messages extracted from the corresponding log file (*.log) or the complete log file attached to the question. It is not the first time that you are asked for this. We don't want to do that for every single question.

Thank you for your reminder, Thorsten. I am sorry I posted the question quickly and forgot to add the error message.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{ebgaramond}
\usepackage{blindtext}

\begin{document}
\normalfont
\blindtext
\end{document}
The error message is:" ! LaTeX Error: File `ebgaramond.sty' not found.", when I use ebgaramond font style. Same thing happens to venturis2. Once this message appears, the tex stops converting the file. How to solve this problem? Do I need to download font files or all fonts files are already installed in Latex? Any suggestion is appreciated.

Just install the packages ebgaramond and venturisadf by the package manager of your TeX distribution. For ebgaramond you may need the orginal font files as described in the corresponding README file.
