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/
PDF Info:

\newdimen\fntcodesz
\fntcodesz = 11.5pt
\font\kwr = name:thesansmonocdw5regular:+lnum;+zero at \fntcodesz
\kwr
0123456789
\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
Thanks for the reply. Tried `mode=node`. Read about it, but never
thought
of putting it here!? The correct specification then is:
\font\mono = {TheSansMonoCd-W5Regular:%
script=latn;+lnum;+zero;mode=node} at \fntsze
Confused about the color though. Read most of luatexref-t.pdf, and may
have missed it. The only reference (and it works in `luaotfload` under
TeXLive2013) is like this:
\font\mono = {TheSansMonoCd-W5Regular:%
script=latn;+lnum;+zero;mode=node;color=336699} at \fntsze
~~~~~~~~~~~~
so it looks like oftload adds that (or maybe the latex font definition
code) but even then, it's probably implemented someplace else in the
latex code
Found no other reference to setting color on fonts in LuaTeX-plain (the
ConTeXt version). Would love a pointer to the information though.
it must be something latex i think (maybe to provide xetex
compatibility) but it's definitely not in luatex (nor will be) and also
not in context (which has more advanced color support than hex specs
anyway)
if you want color, use context instead of plain
Big thanks for the `mode=node`; took me 6hrs to try and fix to no avail.
best try out these things with context (and if needed turn on tracing)
