I am finishing the final touches on a manuscript, which I hope to send
to a publisher later today and noticed this problem where bold and
italic text isn't rendered at the same time.
I am using the EB Garamond font in my document. I set it up exactly as
shown below. Strangely, bold works, italics works, but when bold and
italics are together, it only display in italics, it doesn't display a
bold italic text. I've confirmed the `EBGaramond-BoldItalic.otf` font is
present and seems just fine. I've also tried by just using the default
ConTeXt font and the error still appears, also in
live.contextgarden.net. I tried searching the mailing list, as this
seems like something that must have come up, but couldn't find any
question about this.
Why won't it render both?
See Adams answer.
\starttypescript[serif] [garamond]
\definefontsynonym[Serif] [file:~/.fonts/12/EBGaramond-Regular.otf]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [file:~/.fonts/12/EBGaramond-Bold.otf]
\definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [file:~/.fonts/12/EBGaramond-Italic.otf]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic] [file:~/.fonts/12/EBGaramond-BoldItalic.otf]
\stoptypescript
Don't use absolute paths in \definefontsynonym, when you use a local
folder for your font files set the path with \usefontpath.
%%%% begin snippet
\usefontpath [~/fonts/12/]
\starttypescript [serif] [garamond]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:EBGaramond-Regular.otf]
...
\stoptypescript
%%%% end snippet
