I'm using luatex which also support fontspec and can generate pdf without any problem. However, when using latex-preview-pane to preview, it gives:

Most Recent Backtrace:

Transcript written on draft.log. ! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

! For immediate help type H . ! ! See the fontspec documentation for further information. ! ! instead of plain "latex" or "pdflatex". ! You must change your typesetting engine to, e.g., "xelatex" or "lualatex" ! ! The fontspec package requires either XeTeX or LuaTeX to function. ! ! Fatal fontspec error: "cannot-use-pdftex" ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When looking into the log file, it seems latex-preview-pane use pdftex instead since it cannot fine xetex.

Is it possible to add support to luatex? Thanks.

Hi maniux,

Yes. Please see the following issue for instructions on how to do it.

Note you just need to look at the settings; don't add the other repo, as MELPA is the now authoritative source for LPP.

Best, JLS
