Fonts bundled with TeXLive are not usually made available to system, font services and XeTeX can’t locate fonts in TeX tree by font name (LuaTeX based packages does, though). So you need to either install TeX fonts system wide (check TeXLive documentation, though not sure with works for Mac), or access fonts by file name:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
usepackage{unicode-math}
setmainfont{XITS}
[ Extension = .otf,
UprightFont = *-Regular,
BoldFont = *-Bold,
ItalicFont = *-Italic,
BoldItalicFont = *-BoldItalic,
]
setmathfont{XITSMath-Regular}
[ Extension = .otf,
BoldFont = XITSMath-Bold,
]
begin{document}
Text $x+y=sqrt{z}$ boldmath $x+y=sqrt{z}$
end{document}
2
on Linux one can define a local config file.fonts.conf
in which additional directories can be defined, e.g./usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/opentype/
. Such directories will then be searched byfontconfig

Thanks Khaled, that worked without installing the fonts (and using the document you suggested above). Also, on re-reading your user guide (that comes with XITS) you mention that you need to do this. In the end I installed the fonts by following the procedure here link due to Herbert Schulz.

This used to work for me (on MikTeX), but now I see that the file names of the math-versions have changed fromxits-math.otf
andxits-mathbold.otf
toXITSMath-Regular.otf
andXITSMath-Bold.otf
, both in MikTeX and in CTAN, so the code needs to be updated. (Also the main font now uses a lot of upper case in the file names. This is not a problem on Windows, but I guess it matters on Linux.)

to XITSMath-Regular.otf
and XITSMath-Bold.otf
, both in MikTeX and in CTAN, so the code needs to be updated. (Also the main font now uses a lot of upper case in the file names. This is not a problem on Windows, but I guess it matters on Linux.)– Michal Kaut

This used to work for me (on MikTeX), but now I see that the file names of the math-versions have changed from
xits-math.otf
and xits-mathbold.otf
to XITSMath-Regular.otf
and XITSMath-Bold.otf
, both in MikTeX and in CTAN, so the code needs to be updated. (Also the main font now uses a lot of upper case in the file names. This is not a problem on Windows, but I guess it matters on Linux.)– Michal Kaut

You need to be running xelatex, not latex. Also, you need to download and install The XITS open type fonts.

@nathan-grigg: The error above was generated by xelatex. However, I did not realize that I needed to download the fonts -- I thought what came with TeXLive 2011 was sufficient. Ire the fonts that I need in the zipfile from the XITS download site link?

I took a look at what is installed on my system by the xits package (cat version 1.103) and it includes a number of OTF files (such as xits-regular.otf, xits-math.otf, etc). I'm guessing this means the fonts are installed. Is there something else I need to install?

Yes, you need that and put it into
/Library/Fonts
(or wherever regular Mac fonts are installed in Lion) (I'm still using 10.6).– Alan Munn

it's a shame xelatex would not follow the same convention as say emacs..
