I have dusted off an old LaTeX template that I used with RMarkdown some time ago (when it worked), updated to the latest R, RMarkdown, tinytex etc.
When I try to knit the document, it gives an error that it cannot find the Accanthis font:
! Package fontspec Error: The font "AccanthisADFStdNo3-Regular" cannot be
(fontspec) found.
! name = AccanthisADFStdNo3-Regular, rootname = AccanthisADFStdNo3-Regular, pointsize =
! mktexmf: empty or non-existent rootfile!
...
This is called from the template with lines:
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{AccanthisADFStdNo3}[
UprightFont = *-Regular,
ItalicFont = *-Italic,
BoldFont = *-Bold,
BoldItalicFont = *-BoldItalic,
Ligatures={TeX,NoRequired},
]
TinyTex can see the font in that
tinytex::tlmgr_search("/AccanthisADFStdNo3-Regular[.](tfm|afm|mf|otf)")
locates an.otf file
but running from the command line
mktextfm AccanthisADFStdNo3-Regular
gives "mktexmf: empty or non-existent rootfile!" and is looking for a .mf file that does not exist.
Any idea what the cause of this is?
Thanks
