"Nimbus Sans L" is /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/n019003l.pfb, one of the oldest fonts shipped with X11 and ghostscript, etc. Not being able to read it is quite crazy.

The updates fixes the issue. I'm just curious whether it is riping out the new work-in-progress refactoring dvipdfm-x, or going backwards to the older version? > see also: > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020941#c15 > > "I hope Fedora is not really shipping the development version directly out > of SVN tree, because the dvipdfm-x re-factoring have not been released nor > finished.

Description of problem: I have a tex file which ran okay on Dec 9 on up-to-date fc19 now failed with fc20. Since it complains about font problems, I have trimmed the test file down to this: ---------------- \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage{fontspec} \setmainfont{Nimbus Sans L} \begin{document} \section{A} B \end{document} ---------------- running "xelatex a.tex" ends with: ** ERROR ** Unrecognized CIDFont Type Since it worked in fc19, I played with various things, and extracting xdvipdfmx texlive-xetex-bin-svn30634.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.x86_64.rpm (and the older poppler poppler-0.22.1-5.fc19.x86_64.rpm) into /tmp, and do this: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/usr/lib64/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH \ xelatex -output-driver=/tmp/usr/bin/xdvipdfmx a.tex works. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): texlive-2013-3.20131021_r31961.fc20.x86_64 texlive-xetex-bin-svn30845.0-3.20131021_r31961.fc20.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just run "xelatex a.tex", on the above short tex snipplet. 2. 3. Actual results: "** ERROR ** Unrecognized CIDFont Type" Expected results: "Output written on a.pdf (1 page). Transcript written on a.log."
