Text Formatting ⇒ Where \fontspec looks for files

[Laurentius]

When specifying an uninstalled font file with \fontspec, e.g. by

Code: Select all

\fontspec{[caslon.otf]}

the file has to be in the same directory as the tex-file. Is there any way to get \fontspec to look for it elsewhere?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

You can specify a path, such as

Code: Select all

\fontspec[Path = /home/laurentius/fonts/]{caslon.otf}

and

Code: Select all

\setmainfont[Path = /home/laurentius/fonts/]{caslon.otf}
