Hi folks. This is what happens when you're fighting insomnia in a foreign land. I started investigating the TeXLive tree, and came up with at least a partial solution to something that keeps getting asked about here.

They print out ok, but the on-screen versions are really >naff. The computer concrete fonts *do* exist in a type1 version, albeit only in pl0 encoding. They probably only get installed when you choose the polish language/fonts package in TeXLive. CTAN appears to have these files at: <http://www.ctan.org/getfile/?filename=language/polish/cc-pl.zip&action=/ tools/filesearch> Anyway, by creating some simple font synonyms to fonts already referred to by ConTeXt's built-in typescript, you can access the fonts fairly easily: %% use the Polish cc-pl type1 files that come with TeXLive7 \definefontsynonym [ccr10] [pcr10] [encoding=pl0] \definefontsynonym [ccti10] [pcti10] [encoding=pl0] \definefontsynonym [ccsl10] [pcsl10] [encoding=pl0] \definefontsynonym [cccsc10] [pccsc10] [encoding=pl0] \setupbodyfont[con] \starttext \input knuth \showaccents \stoptext In addition, if you install the type-eul.zip files, you can use the fonts with euler math, as well: % http://homepage.mac.com/atl/tex/EulerContext.zip % replace \setupbodyfont[con] with \usetypescriptfile[type-eul] \setupbodyfont[con,eul] Hope someone finds that interesting. adam [I sent this to the list whilst travelling from an alternate email account.
