With the last release of context the problem of not getting cm fonts
is over. These are now found.
However, other font selections bring new difficulties.
I tried various combinations but did not succeed.
The simple program (using TeXShop):
\starttext
\setupbodyfont[tim,12pt]
hello world
\stoptext
Fails and aborts with:
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.4-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5)
ConTeXt ver: 2005.11.11 fmt: 2005.11.13 int: english mes: english
....
! Font \*times12ptrmtf*:=utmr8t at 12.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)
file not found.
Changing into \usetypescript[phv]\setupbodyfont[phv,12pt]
! Font \*postscript12ptrmtf*:=utmr8t at 12.0pt not loadable: Metric
(TFM) file not found.
No help from enabling in cont-sys.tex of:
\usetypescript[adobekb] [\defaultencoding]
(updmap.cfg contains URWkb for the LW35 fonts)
then it starts asking for (non-existing) maps like:
Warning: pdfetex (file ec-urw-helvetica.map): cannot open font map file
If I use
\setupbodyfont[lbr,12pt]
then I get just lm-roman, although I have the YandY lucida fonts
installed with their original YandY names (lb--.pfb)
Here no help from changing between texnansi and ec default encoding.
Any idea whats amiss? I ran this on a teTeX3 install with the context
files unzipped into texmf-local.
(I must confess I am tempted to give up on ConTeXt altogether,
because of these many font troubles.)
