[Tex/LaTex] font-not-found using xelatex in windows 10

fontsxetex

With MiKTeX 2.9, I'm gonna use Lucida and/or Jokerman Regular fonts which exist in the font section of my Windows 10:

I've no problem with Georgia or Garamond, but this code

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec,kantlipsum}
\defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX}

\setromanfont{Lucida}
%\setsansfont{Jokerman Regular}

\begin{document}

\kant[1]

\end{document}

returns an error as follows:

fontspec error: "font-not-found" The font "Lucida" cannot be found. For immediate help type H <return>. \setromanfont{Lucida}

What do I do wrong?

Happy new year!

You are using wrong font names.

In the case of Jokerman Regular, just get rid of that regular. Additionally, Lucida is a family name for a class of fonts, and you need to pinpoint a particular member of this class such as Lucida Calligraphy Italic.

So you may finally end up with the following:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec,kantlipsum}
\defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX}

% Either of the following
\setmainfont{Lucida Calligraphy Italic}
\setmainfont{Jokerman}

\begin{document}

\kant[1]

\end{document}

Jokerman Regular:

Lucida Calligraphy Italic:

[Tex/LaTex] Conflict between color, graphicx and libertine

These option clashes happen when a package is requested to be loaded on two different positions, like by you and inside another package, but with different options. The package is loaded by the first \usepackage (or its twin \RequirePackage); it isn't loaded again when it is requested again. It simply can't be loaded a second time. Therefore the new options can be activated and previous options might conflict with the second usage. So LaTeX creates an error to report this issue to you.

The way to fix this is to declare the options beforehand using \PassOptionsToPackage{<options>}{<package>}. Then they are used wherever the package is loaded.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{ifpdf}
\ifpdf
    \PassOptionsToPackage{pdftex,usenames,dvipsnames}{color}
    \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
    \usepackage{libertine} % most likely loads 'color' itself
    %\usepackage{lmodern} % doesn't load 'color'
    \usepackage{color}
    \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
\else
    %\bye
\fi
\begin{document}
Hello, world!
\end{document}

I can't test it by myself, because I don't have the libertine package installed.

PS:

I don't think you need to set pdftex manually. Normally packages do a good job recognizing the driver by themselves. Also you might want to use the extended xcolor package instead of color.

[Tex/LaTex] Problematic interaction between fontspec and beamer

beamer uses the sffamily by default, so you need to define the \cyryllicfontsf using \newfontfamily:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainfont{STIX}
\newfontfamily{\cyrillicfontsf}{XITS}

\setdefaultlanguage{russian}
\begin{document}

This is a test.

Это тест
\end{document}

(I have the actual STIX fonts installed, so I haven't tested this with XITS but it should work the same.)

If you want to use a sans serif font, then Herbert's solution is the correct one. I assumed you wanted to make the default Beamer font to use XITS.
