How do I install the fonts from the Latex Font Catalogue that are not part of texlive? In this particular instance I would like to use Augie which is part of the emerald package (though in future I want to use other fonts too.)

The following code gives the error "emerald.sty not found" so I assume I only have the texlive packages and not the others.

I have read about getnonfreefonts but this Augie font says it is free so I'm not sure.

\documentclass[14pt,a4paper,article]{memoir} % for a short document

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

\pagestyle{empty}    

\newcommand{\attrib}[1]{%
\nopagebreak{\raggedleft\footnotesize #1\par}}    

\begin{document}    

\ECFAugie    

\renewcommand{\poemtitlefont}{\centering}
\poemtitle{Poem}
\settowidth{\versewidth}{Width}
line1\\
line2\\
line3
\end{verse}
\attrib{}

\end{document}

Thankyou.

    augie is part of TeX Live. – cfr Feb 22 '15 at 14:16

    The emerald package is not part of TL, but augie is. The font catalogue is wrong. emerald is not supported by getnonfreefonts(-sys). You can install it yourself or just write \newcommand\augie{\fontencoding{T1}\fontfamily{augie}\fontseries{m}\fontshape{n}\selectfont} in your preamble. – cfr Feb 22 '15 at 14:29
  • @cfr Thankyou, but I have tried that code both before and after \begin{document} and the font is not produced. I don't know how to install the emerald package myself which is what I was asking. Any further clarification would be much appreciated. – AnnaH Feb 22 '15 at 21:32

    Are you using upstream TeX Live or your distro's? If you have a full install from upstream, it should work. If you have installed packages from your distro, you may not have installed the right one for augie or they may (for some reason) have decided not to include it at all. – cfr Feb 22 '15 at 21:54
  • I installed it through my distro. I don't know anything about upstream sorry. – AnnaH Feb 22 '15 at 23:21
  • See http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1092/how-to-install-vanilla-texlive-on-debian-or-ubuntu. Otherwise, first try to figure out if your distro packages augie. It is part of TeX Live, after all. – cfr Feb 23 '15 at 00:32
