Thanks! I'm looking for a level 1 solution (ie one that doesn't require me to go into the Terminal and start typing commands and moving files). Adam's document was interesting but looked a bit too daunting - a level 2 solution. Nothing wrong with that, just that I've got to find the time and skill to do it. The symbol set reference was great - the planet symbols are accessible in: \usesymbols[mvs] \showsymbolset[astronomic] so I may not have to go to a unicode-font at all. I just wish there was some way of accessing all the standard fonts and symbols that are already a few millimetres away on the hard disk... :-) thanks again! _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
