[OS X TeX] Fontspec issue

[Rowland McDonnell]

I’ve installed MacTeX 2021 on an iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) running macOS 10.15.7.

I can use some installed system founts via XeLaTeX and fontspec, but the minimum test document below fails.

Book Antiqua is installed in  /Users/rowland/Library/Fonts/Book Antiqua as a font suitcase file.  I got the impression that it was an OpenType fount by creating a “Smart Collection” in Fontbook.app that filtered for Kind=OpenType. I have checked the Smart Collection filter setting and it’s definitely Kind=OpenType.

However, when I look at the information panel for Book Antiqua in Fontbook.app, it reports that it is TrueType - OpenType is not mentioned.

I’m baffled. Would anyone be so kind as to explain what’s going on with Fontbook.app - that is, how come I’m filtering for OpenType but being shown something that’s apparently not OpenType, whether or not I can expect to be able to use Book Antiqua, and if so how I might do so?

Thanks in advance,
Rowland.
