"Automatic" upper case for Fontin

Post by templateuser »

Hello,
Thanks for the template! But mysteriously all the letters are turned into upper cases... I have changed nothing in the source code, and installed Fontin font, but all the letters are in upper case automatically...
e.g: It should be:
Developed spreadsheets for risk analysis on exotic derivatives on a wide array of commodities (ags, oils, precious and base metals), managed...
but I got:
DEVELOPED SPREADSHEETS FOR RISK ANALYSIS ON EXOTIC DERIVATIVES ON A WIDE ARRAY OF COMMODITIES (ags, oils, precious and base metals), MANAGED...
Where is possibly the problem? I am using windows 7. Thank you very much!

Hi,

Hmm that's quite an odd error. Which version of the font did you install from http://www.exljbris.com/fontin.html? There's two PC download links there so perhaps try the other one to the one you got? Otherwise, try updating your LaTeX distribution and packages, I assume you're using MikTeX?

Cheers,

Hi,

Thanks for the response. Actually I have tried both versions of the font, and always the same result... I'm using the latest TexLive.

It is possible that I installed a "bad" version of Fontin for the first time, and it has not been totally deleted... anyway I'm giving up and may just use Times New Roman instead... or otherwise do you have suggested fonts for CV?

cheers,

"Automatic" upper case for Fontin

Post by templateuser »

Hi!

I just resolved the problem with a last try! Here is how I made it, if someone else might come up with the same problem: instead of installing the font into the system, I put the .ttf files in a folder and use them directly in .tex script. ( \setmainfont [Path=..., Extension=.ttf,...] {Fontin-Regular}).

Hope this would help someday

Best,
Yingzi

Hi,

Actually this tip did the trick. I was getting the same issue, but changing to `{Fontin-Regular}` solved it.

Thanks
