Thanks, as always, for the prompt replies. Does this mean that I need to
focus on the typescript mechanism rather than simplefonts?
In principle both should work with simpleslides module though I never
tested it with simplefonts.
Wolfgang, that was also the point I wanted to clarify since from my
earlier reading of the manual's section on "Choosing on your own fonts",
the example pointed to using typescripts. However, from the Aditya's
posting I was encouraged that I could use (my) default method of relying
on simplefonts.
ConTeXt comes with typescripts for lot of the commonly used fonts.
Earlier, you had to use
\usetypescript[dejavu]
\setupbodyfont[dejavu]
to use an existing typescript. Since a year or more now, the first line is
not needed. You can just use
\setupbodyfont[dejavu]
and context will run \usetypescript[...] if a typescript is not already
loaded.
One last question stemming from the Jean-Luc Dumont's article on effective
communications: is there a way to turn off the interaction bar in the
slides. I am using the simple 'Shaded' style where the interaction bars are
displayed as small circles along the bottom.
The simpleslides module is not designed for configurability. Sorry. The
best solution is to copy the Shaded style to another file and remove the
code for the bottom bar.
Thomas and I were working on a more extensible version of simpleslides,
but haven't had the time to finish it.
