## My fonts don't work on TeXLive-libre

Some fonts were took off Arch's texlive-* packages because of incompatible licenses. If you find your fonts won't build, please consider starting to use XeLaTeX, since it will allow you to use system fonts with Unicode support.

Example:

    \usepackage{xunicode}
    \usepackage{xltxtra}
    \defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
    \setromanfont [Ligatures={Common}, Numbers={OldStyle}, Variant=01]{Linux Libertine O}
    \setmonofont[Scale=0.8]{Droid Sans Mono}

Another way is to use QX encoded fonts instead of T1, or OT2 instead of T2A (with different metrics and glyphs). Example:

    \usepackage{lmodern}
    \usepackage[QX]{fontenc}
