Hi Paul. You almost got it. You slightly misunderstood the use of the definetypface line... Paul Hoffman wrote: But that's a hack.

We'll rewrite it and re-place it below. \starttypescript[serif][bembo][name] \definefontsynonym[Serif] [BemboRegular] \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [BemboItalic] \definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [BemboBold] \definefontsynonym[SerifCaps] [BemboCaps] \definefontsynonym[SerifSlanted][BemboItalic] \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic] [BemboBold] \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldSlanted][BemboBold] \stoptypescript These lines look pretty good (although I suspect you could be defining Bold Italic as well). You want a third typescript that creates the typeface definition. It's this thing that calls the other two: \starttypescript[bembo][uc] \definetypeface [bembo] [rm] [serif] [bembo] [default] [encoding=uc] \stoptypescript And a test file in the same directory as the typescript file: \usetypescriptfile[type-bembo] \usetypescript[bembo][uc] \setupbodyfont[bembo,11pt] \starttext Bembo {\bf Bembo} {\it Bembo} {\sc Bembo} Bembo. \stoptext Now I get small caps all right, but everything's in Computer Modern. :-( What am I doing wrong?

But I get always confused with the names for these rich features like Style Option, Ligatures, Variants. I mean: how do I know how many variants and style options a font has and how they and their ligatures etc. want to be called? In plain ConTeXt (for the 255 characters) we can use \showfont[...] and \showcharacters in order to know how to call the specific characters/glyphs. But what about OpenType? \showfont is limited to unicode's 0-255 slots, but it's functional: \showfont[Book Antiqua] Peeking at the LaTeX side of XeTeX, I saw that they have created a packages called fontspec which seems to give better access to all (?) if these options.

Sorry, I hadn't been watching that. I've suggested texnansi as a starting point, at least within ConTeXt. What symbols do people want that *aren't* within texnansi? 1. Would Caron similar uppercase accents make sense? I doubt that many accents are needed in addition to what is already present in the other encoding anyway, but something like that could be used if there is no Ccaron present in the font for example: \definecharacter Ccaron {\buildtextaccent\textCaron C} instead of \definecharacter Ccaron {\buildtextaccent\textcaron C} In well-designed fonts (including all Polish fonts such as lm, antykwa, iwona, ...) the lowercase and the uppercase variant of the accent differ. (Try to write \Scaron\Ccaron in texnansi encoding for example to see the difference). Good point... except that there are *no* accents available in eurolett, anyway. It *should* have all of the accented uppercase characters you need (within roman ;). The whole theory is to do away with building text accents. But what does Hans want? Should lc and uc accents be available to create `weird' combinations? Of course some care has to be taken, so that it will also work for fonts without those additional accents for uppercase characters (using \iffontchar perhaps?). Indeed. I do want to avoid a strong dependency on the specific glyphs that appear in the font. That moves the encoding mess to *within* ConTeXt, which is not pretty, either. 2. perhaps some currency symbols missing in texnansi I would suggest to add Euro, but with some special care of course. Perhaps some users still prefer to use the regular (geometrical) symbol rather than the one taken from I-forgot-which-font (the default behaviour when \texteuro is used). Any other currency on this list worth supporting? http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U20A0.pdf Perhaps dong, lira, Won ... sounds like ts1-like stuff. 3. Perhaps a short glimpse into: http://source.contextgarden.net/ts1-lm.enc http://www.cstug.cz/aktivity/2005/lm-at11e.pdf http://www.janusz.nowacki.strefa.pl/pliki/AntykwaTorunska-doc-en-2_03.pdf if you notice anything worth supporting. married might be useful for geneaology, I guess that the leaf is there for the same purpose. No idea why anyone would want to use the musical note (ugly in lm and probably hardly present in any other font). They're there because of ts1, which is *mostly* unhelpful here. I would have thought glyph coverage from places like Adobe, Storm, and Emigre (for example) might be a better guide. 4. numero sign, ordfeminine, ordmasculine, copyleft ;), I don't know well, some of those are in standard practice, at least. ;) if anybody needs fractions, permyriad, ... one/two/...superior (present in some regimes) are pretty pointless in TeX where you can use \high{} I guess. Perhaps there should be two different glyphs for tilde and asciitilde (not sure about the last one.) Yeah, I'm trying to be driven by *requirements* instead of technical capability (i.e., what already exists in a family of fairly peculiar fonts). I know those are around, but I don't hear a lot of calls for them since ConTeXt moved to EC as a default encoding. adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Hmm, I suspect that some remix between my old (deprecated) Libertine in ConTeXt recipe and the ttf2tfm automatic unicode splitting would have some positive effects. (I would discourage using that recipe for alphabetic (incl Roman) Unicode fonts because it blows away any kerning that would happen between unicode blocks. Is there less kerning among CJK fonts? I would expect so.) Thinking aloud, you'd probably want to include some language-switching commands, to mediate between the calling of unicode fonts for un-named CJK glyphs (just raw conversion from Unicode to font switch + glyph number) to named roman (and other alphabetic) glyphs (conversion from UTF-8 to named glyphs to font+glyph, which retains kerning where it can).

Getting texfont to do batch installs on gwTeX (was Re: [NTG-context] Palatino)
David, Sorry I've been quiet on this front. I've been busy with other, non- ConTeXt things for a while, and am in the process of re-engaging with it. In order to run type-tmf.dat, you need a way around the hard-coded -- rootlist=TEXMFMAIN that's in the .dat file. gwTeX keeps the fonts we need in what it calls the TEXMFTE directory. My brutish workaround is as follows: 1) Go to some temp directory. 2) copy type-tmf into that directory: cp /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/context/data/type-tmf.dat . 3) munge type-tmf to something more gwTeX friendly: sed s/TEXMFMAIN/TEXMFTE/ type-tmf.dat type-tmf-gw.dat (literally: replace every occurrence of TEXMFMAIN with TEXMFTE and put it in type-tmf-gw.dat) 4) run texfont (prepend with sudo if you have errors): texfont type-tmf-gw.dat 5) run it again, if you want the ec encoding: texfont --en=ec type-tmf-gw.dat 6) process one or two test files to see if it really worked: texexec --once --mode=compact texnansi-urw-bookman.tex I hope that works for you.

There's a little bit of explanation here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Encodings_and_Regimes ...but basically, TeX's hyphenation trickery doesn't know how to deal with composite characters (when it puts an atop a u [pardon my 7-bit rendition]). If a word contains a composite u as a character, it won't break. If it contains a full ü, TeX can deal with it. May I suggest looking at the new Latin Modern light sans fonts for text, and using hfbright for mathematics only? Propably you are right and I should go the easy way and simply use an other font. Do you know if there is a ready package for the Latin Modern light sans? Um, disregard that. I must have hallucinated that font. It doesn't exist.

Re: [NTG-context] More problems installing OpenType fonts
Hi Emil. I wrote that article and am pretty baffled by the problems you have. (I just did a test run of the same command, running an identical texfont, identical otftotfm version) The ConTeXt installation looks fine. There are two discrepancies that I see here, though: otftotfm is running updmap in the interim. That shouldn't disturb things, but it might point to you getting the binary from somewhere other than gwTeX. your entire TeX tree is in your local directory, which makes me wonder how you installed the whole machinery. I also wonder which version of the Antykwa Torunska fonts you are trying to convert: they have been updated a few times since the article. adam Emil Hedevang said this at Thu, 22 Sep 2005 11:20:19 +0200: Hello I am trying to follow the instructions in the article OpenType installation basics for ConTeXt, but the generated map file does not contain anything but commented lines.

The best quality can be achieved if you prepare all your stuff in XML and then write both a stylesheet for conversion into HTML and a couple of ConTeXt definitions to handle formating for output in PDF documents.

Thanks. Good to know. Only tcaron char is not searchable (if in my AR7 search for any letter, say 'a' I got all accented a variant; if for 't' 'È' is not find), but I do not know if the problem is in a) AR, b) CMAP, c) encoding (enco in the font presented in the PDF has mostly tcaron but tquoteright is presented too). But tt is not a big problem. Hmm, interesting. I get the same results in Apple's PDF viewer. (The capital letter Tcaron is searchable, though!) There's a fair bit that I don't understand about CMAP, however. (Also note that this was generated a few months ago, and that recent CMAP improvements (I think I saw some corrections go by on the mailing list while on holiday) won't be reflected here.) -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Sorry about the confusion. I thought you were talking about using converted OpenType fonts, and then using them in their natural state from XeTeX. If they're virtual fonts, then the short answer is no. XeTeX doesn't deal with virtual fonts at all when it is in its compatibility mode (i.e., tries to use tfms/type1 fonts in the texmf tree). This is disappointing to me too (having just moved euler support to eulervm files), but it's fairly understandable in the context of what XeTeX is trying to achieve. adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

[NTG-context] Re: re-using ConTeXt typescripts ?
Hi Steffen, You're pretty close. It's best not to rewrite your old scripts, rather, to make a new type-enc style script to replace your existing [serif] [agaramond][ec] script. This way, when changing engines, it's a simple step of changing the (default, perhaps?) encoding... \starttypescript [serif] [agaramond] [uc] % XeTeX and Unicode is a happy combination \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Regular] ['AGaramondPro-Regular:mapping=tex-text;+onum'][encoding=uc] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Italic] ['AGaramondPro-Italic:mapping=tex-text;+onum'] [encoding=uc] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Bold] ['AGaramondPro-Bold:mapping=tex-text;+onum'] [encoding=uc] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-BoldItalic] ['AGaramondPro-BoldItalic:mapping=tex-text;+onum'] [encoding=uc] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Semibold] ['AGaramondPro-Semibold:mapping=tex-text;+onum'] [encoding=uc] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-SemiboldItalic] ['AGaramondPro-SemiboldItalic:mapping=tex-text;+onum'] [encoding=uc] \stoptypescript So, as you will know from the XeTeX documentation :), the way of naming a font is enclosed within quotes. The first element is the postscript font name (otfinfo -p fontname or look in FontBook.app), then (optionally) a /I, /B, /BI, or /S for within-family selection, any mapping features, and then other OpenType features. Here I selected the tex-text mapping (to stay consistent with `` --- '' ligatures), and the +onum opentype feature (guessing from the name of your typescripts, you like Oldstyle NUMerals). If you wanted to go further, you could define an \sc alternative in your typescripts by inserting it into your other typescripts and turning on the +smcp feature in AGaramondPro-Regular for the appropriate synonym to fit above. I leave that as an exercise for the reader... adam Steffen Wolfrum said this at Mon, 11 Jul 2005 17:37:24 +0200: \starttypescript [serif] [agaramond] [ec] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Regular][padr9e] [encoding=uc] % was encoding=ec before xetex \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Italic] [padri9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Bold] [padb9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-BoldItalic] [padbi9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Semibold] [pads9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-SemiboldItalic] [padsi9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [agaramond] [name] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [AGaramond-Regular] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [AGaramond-Semibold]%[AGaramond-Bold-OSF] \definefontsynonym [SemiBold] [AGaramond-Semibold] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [AGaramond-Italic] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [AGaramond-SemiboldItalic]%[AGaramond-BoldItalic-OSF] \definefontsynonym [SemiBoldItalic][AGaramond-SemiboldItalic] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif][allbold][all] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [SerifBold] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic][SerifBoldItalic] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [AGaramondOldStyle] \definetypeface [normaltype] [rm] [serif] [agaramond] [default] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definetypeface [boldtype] [rm] [serif] [agaramond,allbold] [default] [encoding=uc] % =ec \stoptypescript -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

If nothing is returned, then never mind, it's something else on your system.

Am I doing something wrong? No, I am. You can verify further by adding: \loadmapfile[original-ams-base] \showmathcharacters The normal text-ish accents are not present in the eulervm fonts. I suppose the rationale is that these are never to be used for text (but it becomes questionable when you don't have an overbar or dot!) I have tried to figure out how to get them from other fonts, but am at a loss, in terms of the general case. No one has mentioned it before now, so I didn't try that hard. :) Anyone have any suggestions on what approach to take, or what they'd like to see? -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
