角藤先生，山下です。いつもお世話になっております。 W32TeX の ptex-w32.tar.xz の pdfplatex.bat と pdfptex.bat に「pdvipdfmx」のコマンド名が入っており，これらのバッチファイルを使うと「’pdvipdfmx'は、内部コマンドまたは外部コマンド、操作可能なプログラムまたはバッチファイルとして認識されていません。」が出てしまうという報告がありました。 ChangeLog を見ると [2018/07/22] に > (01) dvipdfm-w32.tar.xz > Remove pdvipdfmx.exe. 等とあるので，戻し忘れではないかと思います。 -- Hironobu Yamashita

Sorry I don't understand what you mean by "different packages". * "ptex-fontmaps-macos" is a macOS-specific addition to the main "ptex-fontmaps" (font maps for dvipdfmx/dvips and the script "kanji-config-updmap") * "cjk-gs-integrate-macos" is a macOS-specific addition to the main "cjk-gs-integrate" (a tool for generating CJK-aware setup of Ghostscript) so actually they are for different purpose. > Here's the log from my attempt: > > cjk-gs-integrate [WARNING]: The program 'otfinfo' not found in PATH. > cjk-gs-integrate [WARNING]: Sorry, we can't be safe enough to distinguish > cjk-gs-integrate [WARNING]: uppercase / lowercase file names. > cjk-gs-integrate: reading font database ... > cjk-gs-integrate [WARNING]: Cannot find cjkgs-morisawa-extra.dat, skipping! > cjk-gs-integrate: checking for files ... > cjk-gs-integrate: searching for Ghostscript resource > cjk-gs-integrate: output is going to /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource > cjk-gs-integrate: generating links and snippets for CID fonts ... > cjk-gs-integrate: generating links, snippets and cidfmap.local for > non-CID fonts ... > cannot open /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/Font/AppleGothic-Adobe-Korea1-0 > for writing: Permission denied at cjk-gs-integrate.pl line 911. > > I found otfinfo in lcdf-typetools.

Please disregard it, as I'm planning to fix it in the next release. > But most important, it would be super helpful if something like > DESTDIR parameter / env. variable would be supported, so that the > generated files would go to $(DESTDIR) > /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/Font/ instead of directly > to /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/Font/. > > I don't want to hardcode the link to 9.23 ghoscript either since that > is doomed to fail, sooner or later. cjk-gs-integrate defaults to /opt/local/share/ghostscript/$(GS_VER)/Resource, but using --output one can switch to another dir. Something like sudo cjk-gs-integrate --output /opt/local/share/ghostscript/cjkresource sudo ln -s /opt/local/share/ghostscript/cjkresource/CIDFont /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/CIDFont sudo ln -s /opt/local/share/ghostscript/cjkresource/Font /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/Font sudo ln -s /opt/local/share/ghostscript/cjkresource/Init/cidfmap /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/Init/cidfmap (... and more for linking all stuff) may work, but that would be complex enough. GS cannot find CJK fonts unless snippets are installed under /opt/local/share/ghostscript/9.23/Resource/. Japanese users have reported many issues on CJK handling for years to the bug tracker, almost no improvement. > Mojca Thanks, Hironobu

Any difference between DVD version and internet one would cause extra complexity, so we will need to take another solution.
