Sorry to be a pest, but has anyone been able to look at the two test files I sent a
few days ago? Again, they require nothing but a standard Omega distribution so any one
can compile them. I really hope to get my own fonts working with
ConTeXt so I can move on to really learning the system. But I just can't bear going
back to PlainFSS.
Also, I could not fint type-buy in my ConTeXt distribution from TeX-Live from
Sept.`01. Is it a new file?
Finally, how hard would it be to write a perl script that can translate a LaTeX FD
file into a typescript file? I'd do it, but I don't know Perl:-) I think an
fd2typescript utility would be extremely useful. Or at least a document explaining how
to port a
generic fd file to typescripts. (If I ever figure this out I'd be glad to write such a
how-to). So many of us (I presume) are migrating from LaTeX so an explanation of
typescript files in comparison/contrast with fd fileswould help us a lot.
Thnx in advance and best wishes
Idris
