I am trying to install the font OpenSans into my TexLive 2021 installation in Ubuntu.

For that purpose I unpacked the OpenSans fonts and in the same directory I run the commands:

$sudo autoinst -verbose -sans -inferiors -fractions -sanserif -math *.ttf
$sudo texhash
$sudo updmap-sys

Later, I try to run the following program:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{OpenSans}

\title{OpenSans} \author{Me}

\begin{document} \maketitle Text \texttt{here} \textrm{roman} \textbf{bold} \textit{italic} \emph{emph} \textsf{SansSerif} \end{document}

However, when I compile my program pdflatex, I obtain the following error:

(base) daalvarez@almarhall:~/Downloads/Open_Sans$ pdflatex test2.tex

Using XeLaTeX is not an option, since I need to compile a book produced with LaTeX in 2010, using packages that are incompatible with XeLaTeX (psfrag), using another set of fonts.

What to do?
