enco-st1.tex - ec encoding with storm glyph extension enco-st2.tex - xl2 encoding with storm glyph extension enco-st3.tex - variants (additional glyph) for enco-st1 and enco-st2
Vit,
I would refer you to this thread with Thomas Schmitz on "variant encodings": <http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2005/009057.html>
I'd call your st1 an EC variant, st2 an XL2 variant, and st3 some sort of custom expert encoding. Ultimately names aren't *that* important, but they can help a lot when others try to pick up and understand your work.
Thank you Adam for your suggestion. Your naming convention has a logic. The reason why I do not use it is that I utilized work of Petr Olsak. I am using all *.tfm, *.map and *.enc files. I believe it is not a drawback for ConTeXt but it is advantage for me: do not prepare hundreds of metric files.
? I have a problem to define mathematics chars. I did:
\starttypescript [math] [dynamoRE] [st1]
\definefontsynonym [DynamoRE-Math-Letters] [sdgr8te] [encoding=st1]
\definefontsynonym [DynamoRE-Math-Letters-Italic] [sdgri8te] [encoding=st1]
\definefontsynonym [DynamoRE-Math-Symbols] [sdgr8te]
% \definefontsynonym [DynamoRE-Math-Extension] []
\stoptypescript
But I get error: !Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts. Where is the problem?
Answer: math family 2 (Math-Symbols) needs extended (math) metric. So I switched back to cmsy10. The same for family 3 (Math-Extension).
I haven't had a chance to play with them yet, but the \setups[font: fallback:sans] look to be helpful.
Interesting, I used it.
? Storm fonts have different accent shapes for lover/upper case letters. Is there some mechanism to distinguish this making the composits?
It is incorporated like \UCtilde{I}. But hardly needed for Storm since nearly all imaginable accented letter are pressent as a single glyph.
I only defined this way: Ygrave, Ytilde, Ibreve, Ycaron, Etilde.
For details, see enco-st1.tex or enco-st2.tex
