No help from enabling in cont-sys.tex of:

(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


that is when you use texfont generated metrics
texfont --encoding=ec --batch type-tfm.dat
will generate those metrics (which are the ones i use)


Do I now understand correctly that I MUST use texfont first in order to work with fonts in ConTeXt? I did not realize that when going over to the new tetex setup. I guess the typescripts for the lm/cmr fonts are ready-made in the context distribution? Is there somewhere a script to do this (somewhat painless) for the "regular" fonts in the teTeX distribution or should I generate just by hand for whatever font I need?

(2) about math typesetting

Although computer modern (lm fonts) now appear in text, there is something strange with math. Running the next example coming from the ConTeXt manual (page 103):
\starttext
{$\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c\ \hbox{whatever} + \sin(2x)$} math\crlf
{$\bf \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c\ \hbox{whatever} + \sin(2x)$} boldmath BUT `sin' ISN'T, sqrt NEVER IS \crlf {$\bf\mf \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c\ \hbox{whatever} + \sin(2x)$} boldmath NOW `sin' IS, sqrt NEVER IS \crlf
\stoptext
The second line doesn't show the "sin" in bold as contrasted with the special remark in the manual. I does show in bold with \mf however. Has the math behaviour changed meanwhile? Or does it point to still another flaw in my setup? The following fonts appear in the pdf (as seen in Adobe Reader): CMMI12, CMSY10, LMRoman12-Bold (and 9), LMRoman12-Regular (and 9).

in comparison, the following LaTeX example has the right behaviour:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
{$\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c$} math\hfill\break
{\boldmath$\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c + \sin{}x$} boldmath\par
\end{document}
