Hi all,

Trying to select "slashed zero" and "lining figures" from a
font. For Lucida Bright OT, as another example, +scmp works,
but not for Charter ITC Pro. But the font that concerns me
the most right now, is TheSansMono Condensed...

Font URL:
http://www.lucasfonts.com/fonts/thesansmono/thesansmono-condensed/features/

\font\kwr = name:thesansmonocdw5regular:+lnum;+zero at \fntcodesz
\kwr

\bye

sometimes you need to select a script/language combination too or when
digits are concerned disable oldstyle

I'm too inexperienced to know what that means, or how to apply that.

there is some info in font manuals and the context wiki

I've opened the font in FontForge, and can see the glyphs I'm
looking for, but again, it does not carry much applicable meaning
for me. For example, can I use this information?:

Slash 0, Lining Figures: (0x10120) U+0030 "zero.lf.slashed" DIGIT ZERO
        1, Lining Figures: (0x10121) U+0031 "one.lf" DIGIT ONE
        ...
Slash 0, "Basic": (0x1012b) U+0030 "zero.basic.slashed" DIGIT ZERO
        1, "Basic": (0x1012c) U+0031 "one.basic" DIGIT ONE
        ...

so you need to select the lnum feature too

Was this not it?:
...
\font\kwr = name:thesansmonocdw5regular:+lnum;+zero at \fntcodesz
...
But thanks; will keep on reading; if solution found, will add it here.
Regards,
Aíre

Solution:
\font\tt = name:thesansmonocdw5regular:script=latn;+lnum;+zero} at 12pt
Thank you!


Spoke too soon. The "zero.slashed" is selected, instead of
"zero.lf.slashed",
so that the zero is smaller than the rest of the lining figure numbers.
In
desperation, tried luatex with 'luaotfload.sty' under TeXLive2013, and
it
worked fine. `;color=XXXXXX` also works with `luaotfload`, but not with
LuaTeX-plain from ConTeXt.

no, and that is unlikely to show up in context as it makes no sense to specify colors that way .. just use the normal color commands

Any ideas would be welcome. Exhausted Google query permutations and most
font info if for LaTeX, pdfTeX, pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX or ConTeXt.

Can I maybe as a hack switch the glyphs, or something?

how about adding

  mode=node

in the plain setup (often not needed in context)

Hans
