Hi Jane,

It looks like you haven’t installed the Fontin font correctly. I’d recommend you search for how to install fonts for the operating system you are using. You may also try downloading the different versions of the font (e.g. TTF, OpenType) and installing both to see if that fixes the problem.

Hi Jane,
Please follow these steps.
  1. Go to http://www.exljbris.com/fontin.html.
  2. Download PC(Open type) if you are on PC or Mac font accordingly.
  3. After downloading the font, please extract the font to the following path in the ROOT MiKTeK folder … \fonts\opentype\public
  4. Try Typesetting again.

Hey there wise ones. I've tried to google this, but I cannot find any good answers: How come I cannot see anything in the ROOT folder (Ubuntu). I can access it in the terminal, but there seem to be nothing there. Are the files hidden?

Same problem for me when using it on MAC. The font pack that downloaded do not work. Actually I solve this problem by downloading fond of PC version and put all the subfiles to /uses/library/font. And it'll work. Hope it can help anyone who encounters same problem as me.
