Dear Idris,

I may be wrong, but I see it \definefont as remains from MkII in MkIV.
(I know that my previous statement comes from my lack of ConTeXt knowledge.)

I tend to use a single typeface (maybe with a fallback for Greek glyphs)
in my documents. This is much easier to maintain.

This is already ConTeXt core code. BTW, contrary to your fears, it
doesn’t set the whole document that way:

\definefont[PagellaRegular] [texgyrepagella-regular.otf at 14pt]
\definefont[PagellaRegularSmall][texgyrepagella-regular.otf at 12pt]

\definefontfamily[nonexisting][rm][TeX Gyre Cursor]
\setupbodyfont[helvetica]

\setupwhitespace[big]
\setuplayout[width=4.5in,height=5.5in,backspace=2in]

\setupnotation[footnote][style={\PagellaRegularSmall},
  numbercommand=\PagellaRegularSmall]
\setupnote [footnote]
[textcommand={\setupbodyfont[nonexisting]\high}]

\noheaderandfooterlines

\starttext
\startframedtext[width=4.5in,offset=0pt] \PagellaRegular
\startlocalfootnotes
Text
\startfootnote
Note
\stopfootnote\
More text
\placelocalfootnotes
\stoplocalfootnotes
\stopframedtext

\dorecurse{5}{\input zapf}
\stoptext

Or use \switchtobodyfont[nonexisting] (if you feel more confortable with
it). In any case, both commands work as you’d expect on my computer.

With average user, I mean I don’t fully understand the code that I read
(and I cannot write code for ConTeXt [either TeX or Lua]). Otherwise, I
would be contributing code to ConTeXt.

I hope it helps,

Pablo

If you don’t mind using \definefontfamily, this works fine:

  \definefontfamily[lareba][rm][Larabiefont]

  \setupnote[footnote][textstyle={\setupbodyfont[lareba, 12pt]\high}

No previous typescript is required (Larabiefont doesn’t have one).

I must confess that this is far beyond my knowledge. I never used
\definefont.

If you don’t mind using \definefontfamily, this works fine:

  \definefontfamily[lareba][rm][Larabiefont]

  \setupnote[footnote][textstyle={\setupbodyfont[lareba, 12pt]\high}

No previous typescript is required (Larabiefont doesn’t have one).

Dear Idris,

which is the difference between your command above and the next one?

  \setuppapersize[letter]

> \setupnotation[footnote][style={\PagellaRegularSmall},
> titlestyle={\PagellaRegularSmall}]  % Why is this necessary?

For what is this required? Or what do you want to achieve with the
titlestyle option?

> What do we need to do to get a raised footnote symbol in the main text  
> (line 6 of the pdf)?

The default value for the numbercommand option in \setupnotation is \high.

If you redefine it, it should read:

   numbercommand={\PagellaRegularSmall\high},

Otherwise you are removing the raising command.

I hope it helps,

Pablo

[NTG-context] Setting the footnote symbol

2017-11-16 Thread Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد 

Der gang,

For the following \definefont scenario, the footnote symbol in the main  
text is not raised:


===
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]

% \setupbodyfont[schola,12pt]
\definefont[PagellaRegular] [texgyrepagella-regular.otf at 14pt]
\definefont[PagellaRegularSmall][texgyrepagella-regular.otf at 12pt]

\setupwhitespace[big]
\setuplayout[width=4.5in,height=5.5in,backspace=2in]

\setupnotation[footnote][style={\PagellaRegularSmall},   % text style  
of the footnote text
 numbercommand=\PagellaRegularSmall, % symbol-font  
style in the footnote
 titlestyle={\PagellaRegularSmall}]  % Why is this  
necessary?
\setupnote[footnote][textcommand={\PagellaRegularSmall}] % symbol-font  
style in the main text


\noheaderandfooterlines

\starttext \PagellaRegular
\startframedtext[width=4.5in,offset=0pt]
\startlocalfootnotes
Hence in Met VII, where Aristotle debates with masterly penetration how to  
meet the claim of substance to be at once universal, intelligible, and  
definable, and at the same time unique and individual, the singular is at  
length superseded on the throne of substance by the infima species.

\startfootnote
Or \quotation{materiate form,} as Aristotle also calls it because it  
attains existence in a material embodiment and cannot be defined without  
reference to matter, though matter is itself indefinable. The discussion  
is interspersed with criticism of the forms. Aristotle attacks the theory  
as a purely arbitrary individualisation of universals, and the detail of  
the polemic, as well as the context, suggest that he is attacking Plato  
not for divorcing infimae species from singulars, but for separating and  
reifying genera taken apart from species. [\textellipsis]

\stopfootnote\
That is to say the genus is taken to be fully actualised in its infimae  
species, and its further differentiation into singulars is treated as  
irrelevant.


\placelocalfootnotes
\stoplocalfootnotes
\stopframedtext
\stoptext
===

What do we need to do to get a raised footnote symbol in the main text  
(line 6 of the pdf)? Thanks in advance.
