Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ Can't load font because metric data is not found.

[arjaan93]

Hi everybody,

I downloaded a latex template for a resume. I installed the fonts and switched the compiler to LuaLaTex or XeLaTex but I receive the same message with both compiling methods:

! Font \fb=''[cmr10]'' not loadable: metric data not found or bad.<to be read again>\par

Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this?

Tnx in advance!

Kind regards,

Arjaan

Welcome,
mind telling us which template you downloaded? The log-file would also be helpful.

Thanks for the quick reply.

It's the Plasmati Graduate CV

(http://www.latextemplates.com/template/ ... raduate-cv)

I'm using Texmaker. The log file in the attachment is obtained when I run the template in XeLaTeX.

From the log file i can see that your system is a bit outdated. An update of MikTeX would be the very first thing i would do and check if that resolves things.

Replace the line \font\fb=''cmr10'' with \newcommand{\fb}{\fontspec{Latin Modern Roman}}.

Thank you for sharing your infinite wisdom with me. It was indeed the outdated MikTeX distribution!
