![]() To make the new fonts show up all the time, you'll have to tell X11 about them when it starts. Edit /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to make the change permanent.You can then use ' xset q' to see that X knows about the Mathematica fonts. Type ' xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mathematica/BDF,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mathematica/Type1 xset fp rehash' to do this to the current session. To see what fonts X already knows about, run ' xset q' and look for the directories specified by "Font Path.".Regenerate the fonts.dir file (otherwise Mathematica will crash) with ' mkfontdir BDF Type1'.Untar the file in the directory you just created: cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mathematica tar zxvf /path/to/MathFonts_52_.Put the fonts where the Apple X11 server will find them, in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts You should create a subdirectory in there the name mathematica would make sense.Download the Mathematica 5 fonts from This contains three directories.The steps to configuring the Mathematica fonts on a Mac OS X machine are: Here's a couple links that may help you out: ![]() If you're not running Mathematica locally on a department desktop machine (using your laptop, or a machine at home through a SSH connection) you may have some issues with fonts displaying properly. Students should be able to get this for free through Princeton. Then Mathematica people will send you a link to download. Note for postdocs/staff who wants to install Mathematica on their personal non-Peyton connected pc/laptop: you need to purchase the license from the OIT store which is $80/year, which is half of the market price. If you leave the network, Mathematica will realize it cannot reach the license server after a short time (it seems to check every 15 minutes) and will force you to quit the program, giving the option to save any open notebooks. NOTE: As mentioned above this will only work if you're using a wired network connection within Peyton Hall. Enter the name or IP address of the server on which MathLM is running and click Activate.From the activation method dialog, select Connect to a Network License Server. ![]() The Wolfram Product Activation dialog appears on your screen. ![]() If you wish to use the department licenses while you're in the building ( NOTE: You must be using a wired network connection within Peyton Hall to see the license server!) you'll need to tell Mathematica how to reach the server. If you're having trouble with running or using Mathematica, check to see if others are using up all the licenses by running the command monitorlm. We currently have 10 floating licenses for Mathematica in the building this means that you can run it on any machine, but only 10 copies may be run at the same time. You can run Mathematica by loading the appropriate module if not already loaded with module load mathematica then executing mathematica from the command line. ![]()
