Dear list,
with current latest (2026.01.08 23:30), this following sample gets a
ConTeXt error:
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Termes]
\definefontfamily[mainface][tt][TeX Gyre Cursor][rscale=0.25]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
just text
\stoptext
It is caused by rscale in Win64, both with LMTX and LuaTeX, but I
cannot reproduce in Linux64.
Could anyone confirm the issue? I really don’t know what I may be missing.
Confirmed.
- No error on the Mac under ConTeXt ver: 2026.01.08 23:30 LMTX fmt: 2026.1.8
int: english/english
- Error on Windows 11 under version: 2026.01.08 23:30
As my Windows was a brand new install I did the usual:
context --luatex --generate
context --luatex --make
mtxrun --generate
mtxrun --script fonts --reload
just to be sure and still no joy.
On a hunch I changed:
\definefontfamily[mainface][tt][TeX Gyre Cursor][rscale=0.25]
to
\definefontfamily[mainface][tt][{TeX Gyre Cursor}][rscale=0.25]
and it worked.
So something to do with finding the distribution fonts based on a name with
spaces perhaps?
So that is one for Wolfgang then, but it's a bit weird that windows and
unix differ here. On my machine I get
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Termes]
% \definefontfamily[mainface][tt][TeX Gyre Cursor][rscale=1.05]
\definefontfamily[mainface][tt][{TeX Gyre Cursor}][rscale=1.05]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
just text \tt test
\stoptext
but maybe something was fixed in the meantime.
