I’m afraid I get no slanted fonts with "--nocompactfonts". Weird, I use LuaMetaTeX 2.11.07 20250226 and I have to enable compact fonts in Linux-64 with that version. I also have been experiencing an issue already reported before (https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/thread/GWDVD3CNPJQOHBNQX4BFSMYAQA54DFET/#PQU3535L5EG57OQM3TMXS7MADXX7E66L). Either slanted is specified for \definefontfamily or it doesn’t work for \definefallbackfamily: \enableexperiments[fonts.compact] \definefallbackfamily [mainface][rm][Dejavu Sans] [sl={style:regular, features:slanted},preset=range:greek] \definefontfamily [mainface][rm][Latin Modern Sans] %[sl={style:regular, features:slanted}] \setupbodyfont [mainface] \starttext αβγ9 some word others\\ \sl αβγ9 some word others \stoptext I wonder whether these issues might be somehow related. Just in case it might help, Pablo ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
