I read that posting, and I'm aware that it's Manuel who has his heart set on
this particular font. The thing is, though, that I copied your minimal
example into a new TeXShop document and it ran without a hitch. No command
line or new engine necessary, and as Jonathan Kew pointed out, it is because
XeTeX's default output driver does not support the old-timey, classic Mac
PostScript fonts that the convoluted command line is needed. The TrueType
version, though in this case just as old-timey, should just work. And does,
on my system. So what are we, and Manuel, doing differently?
