BUG: XeTeX-0.995 problems with graphicx, fontspec

[com-macosforge@…]

The XeTeX port doesn't work for me (the same file works with a non-MacPorts installation of XeTeX) if I try to use the fontspec or graphicx packages.

For example, the following simple file:

%!TEX TS-program = xelatex

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[xetex]{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\end{document}

gives:

If I try to use the fontspec package instead (\usepackage{fontspec}):

I'm getting a pile of errors with that as well (and I have a working installation from texlive)... Here's a header that I've been using that works pretty well for me. Might work for you as well.

\documentclass[cm-default]{article}

\usepackage{euler, amssymb, amsmath, amsthm}
\usepackage{fontspec, xunicode, xltxtra}

\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
\setmainfont{Avenir LT Std}
\setsansfont{Lucida Sans}
\setmonofont{Lucida Sans Typewriter}

This problem has been documented here: http://tug.org/mailman/htdig/xetex/2005-March/001946.html

The fix is to change /opt/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf (found by running $kpsewhich texmf.cnf) so that the % XeTeX section looks like this:

% XeTeX TEXINPUTS.xelatex = .;$TEXMF/{xetex,tex}/{xelatex,latex,generic,}// TEXINPUTS.xetex = .;$TEXMF/{xetex,tex}/{xetex,plain,generic,}//

[edward.og@…]

Sorry, that should be

> % XeTeX 
> TEXINPUTS.xelatex = .;$TEXMF/{xetex,tex}/{xelatex,latex,generic,}// 
> TEXINPUTS.xetex = .;$TEXMF/{xetex,tex}/{xetex,plain,generic,}//

[pguyot@…]

XeTeX is now included in texlive.
