Giuseppe—

Thanks for the tip about \high. That works (and looks cleaner in the source file too). But

\grk{\overbar{\grk{kj}} Kull'hnhc d\high{\tfx\grk{ou}} med'eonta ka`i >Arkad'ihc polum'hlou}

still chokes on \overbar and returns the “insufficient symbol fonts” error.

Actually, it can happen with a very short document too:



\starttext
\grk{\overbar{\grk{kj}} Kull'hnhc
d$^{\hbox{\tfx\grk{ou}}}$ med'eonta
ka`i >Arkad'ihc polum'hlou}



\stoptext



will produce the
     ! Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts error.



To generalize: all my attempts to enter mathmode when the bodyfont is
Greek (using one of the fonts in Thomas Schmitz’ Greek module) fail
because of insufficient symbol fonts.



I wonder if this bears of the fact that in this module the fonts have
to be defined at every size used in the document. The relevant line
in type-tasgreek is
\definebodyfont
[30pt,25pt,20pt,18pt,17.3pt,14.4pt,14pt,12pt,11pt,10.5pt,10.1pt,10pt,
9pt,8pt,7pt,6pt,5pt,4pt]
[rm]



My environment file sets the body font size to 10.1 pt.


I'm not the font expert, but the problem seems to be that
math small text isn't being set (if I see it correctly,
you're using math mode to enter a superscript). I would
suggest you try \text instead of \hbox in the math part, and
even better try \hi{superscript text} or \super{superscript
text} for the superscript.
