Re: [NTG-context] Best way to access casul fonts
Ha, good to know. Do you know what one should do instead? Also, do you know why this is? It would be good to mention this on the wiki.

Re: [NTG-context] Best way to access casul fonts
this to the wiki as well? I feel like what I'm doing is non-standard. I'm also repeating a lot of what's in the Lucida typescript file that comes with the distribution. There must be some easy way to monkey patch the existing type script file.

Re: [NTG-context] Best way to access casul fonts
Hi
This is probably the most reasonable solution.
Thanks

Re: [NTG-context] Best way to access casul fonts
Hi Pablo, Yes, I want to mix casual with serif, sans-serif and so on. Sorry, I wasn't clear in my original message. What Garulfo suggested is what I've been doing.

[NTG-context] Best way to access casul fonts
Hi, I'm trying to access Lucida Casual. I see in type-imp-lucida-typeone.mkiv that there is, indeed, a typescript for it, but I can't figure out how to switch to it. That is, I want to make some text be Lucida Casual. I gather from a previous thread that I should be using \definefontstyle, but I don't know how to go about this. Currently I'm just defining a new typescript and making Lucida Casual a synonym for Serif and then using \switchtobodyfont --- but this feel silly. I searched the wiki and skimmed the reference manual, but to no avail. Perhaps I don't know what I should be looking for. Any help would be appreciated. What's the easiest way to access a casual font? What's the cleanest way?
