You didn't read the first paragraph of my article :-)

I believe that the "proper" way would be:

\starttext

\startparagraph [style=small]
ABC $DEF$ GHI
\stopparagraph

\stoptext


Or, \switchtobodyfotn[small] etc. This is what I had written in the 
tugboat article on font switching (wikified at 
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Font_Switching)


"These quick font switches are meant for changing the font style,

they don't affect interline spacing or math font sizes. So, if you want to

Please feel free to change the phrasing if it is not clear.

I believe that the "proper" way would be:

\starttext

\startparagraph [style=small]
ABC $DEF$ GHI
\stopparagraph

\stoptext

[NTG-context] How to scale math with text?

2018-06-04 Thread Henri Menke

Dear list,

probably I'm just missing something obvious.  How can I scale the math 
font size to match the text font size locally?  In the following MWE 
text is scaled to 10pt but math still appears at 12pt.


\starttext
{\tfx ABC $DEF$ GHI\par}
\stoptext

Cheers, Henri
