Take the 2-minute tour ×  I need to use some system fonts in my
document, and I use fontspec and XeLaTeX to do so. I find the
font name from fc-list, but when I compile it with XeLaTeX,
there's a fontspec error:  ! fontspec error: "font-not-found" !
The font "Luxi Serif" cannot be found. ! See the fontspec
documentation for further information. ! For immediate help type
H <return>.  l.21 \setmainfont{Luxi Serif}  I just migrated from
Linux to Mac OS X. Back when I was using Linux machine XeLaTeX
works with system fonts. It seems on Mac fontspec can't find
fonts from system directory.  fc-list|grep "Luxi Serif"    I
checked the permissions of directories and font files, nothing
wrong.  There are many font directories on Mac, is it possible
to allow the use of fonts in all the directories?  share|improve
this question The location for system fonts in Mac OS X is
/Library/Fonts. Put them there, or add a symbolic link there to
other directories. –  Alan Munn Sep 27 '12 at 15:47 XeTeX does
