[Tex/LaTex] XeLaTeX – Invalid Font: -1

fontspecxetex

I try to compile the following document using XeLaTeX:

\documentclass[twoside,openright,draft]{scrreprt}

\usepackage{fontspec}
\setsansfont{Univers 65 Bold}  

\begin{document}

\section{Lorem Ipsum}
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod 
tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. 

\end{document}

As a result I get the following (stripped) logfile:

I have some trouble to interpret Invalid font: -1. Any thoughts on what might be causing the problem and, more importantly, how to solve it?

Best Answer

I found a solution. (Not pretty, some work, but solved the problem).

I had the font as Postscript Type 1. So I opened all font files with Fontforge and saved them as OpenType. Afterwards I removed the Postscript fonts from my system and installed the OpenType version. Document compiled without problems.
