[NTG-context] XITS fonts
Thank you, Khaled, for the effort. State-of-the-art and out-of-the-box math font is the feature I miss ) A few questions to get me on track: 1) is xits typescript already present in minimals? If no, where to get it? 2) is it Times-compatible (I mean looks good with Times text) Rgrds, Vyatcheslav ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

It is, but the font files are not. 2) is it Times-compatible (I mean looks good with Times text) It should be, the fonts can be used for text as well (but no small caps and no kerning except for Latin).

And so I did. ConTeXt mkiv in TL will support both 'stix' and 'xits' typescripts that are in the current beta (xits matching XITS beta 2).

I am sure we can squeeze in a typescript if it is just that, a single typescript.
