 The error is:
 >

 "/opt/local/share/fonts/otf/Hiragino/ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3.otf" is not

 from it.

 This is not an error.
 As you may know, Fonts in OTC format is not available in Ghostscript.
 Since format of Hiragino fonts was changed from OTF to OTC when El Capitan
 was released, the fonts involved in OS are not available in Ghostscript at
 present.

 Thus, users have to copy Hiragino fonts in OTF format from Operating
 systems which are up to Yosemite to the specified location.

 According to Apple support, there are no problems about legality on the
 use of the fonts in the old operating systems on the newer operating
 systems if the users legally own the old operating systems.

 This situation would be improved if Ghostscript support fonts in OTC
 format.
