Hello,
I reported a Missing Number error back in December (thread at

Now I'm back to the Missing Number error, and I have a short example

Hi all,
I'm following the instructions at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Installing_a_TrueType_font,_step_by_step
because I want to install a TTF (Gentium in fact) for ConTeXt to use.
There is a warning that these instructions may be out of date, but I
haven't found anything newer.

Thank you ... that was key information I didn't have.
I was instead downloading the TTF files from sil.org.

That TTF should work as well. The only difference is that you might
need slightly different commands to set it up (there were recent
changes/improvements in that,

Hello,
I'm using the simplefonts module from TeX Live 2013. (I can't use the
new simplefonts for this production project, due to stability requirements.)
I have the following, which works well for the most part:
\setupbodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=9.2pt]

Hello, I have the following MWE:
\starttext
\setuptab[headstyle=ssbfb]
\tab{foo} \input knuth \par
\stoptext
Here, the headstyle specifies a sans font with boldface style, at 1.44
times the current bodyfont size.
However, I want to be able to specify an absolute point size, instead of
a

I finally tried

and that works! But it seems clunky: it looks like it requires two font
switches, which I'm told makes things
Hello,
We are using simplefonts, the version included with TeX Live 2013. As
mentioned in another email, we don't have the freedom to experiment with
potentially unstable versions.
I've been reading

and have it working well so far with the mainfont,

Hi again,
I'm using simplefonts (TeX Live 2013 version) and I have a main font:
\setmainfont[Gentium Book Basic]
and I can set a fallback for it,
\setmainfontfallback[Gentium Plus][range={ipaextensions}, force=yes,
rscale=auto]
and that works.
But then I have another font for the title:

As you know, in plain TeX, \lineskiplimit tunes the vertical glue
algorithm by specifying the minimum amount of space between the bottom
edge of one line and the top edge of the following line.
But in ConTeXt, it appears that \lineskiplimit is set to zero, at least
in grid mode.
We're using grid
