Hi all,
I've recently started reading about typefaces in ConTeXt, and trying out
the examples of `showfont.pdf', but stumbled upon errors for almost all
the fonts.
My installation uses teTeX-3.0 on FreeBSD:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/keramida$ pkg_info | fgrep -i tetex
dvipsk-tetex-5.95a_2 Convert a TeX DVI file to PostScript
teTeX-3.0_2 A meta port for teTeX suite
teTeX-base-3.0_11 Thomas Esser's distribution of TeX & friends (binaries)
teTeX-texmf-3.0_5 Thomas Esser's distribution of TeX & friends (texmf tree)
xdvik-tetex-22.84.10_1 DVI Previewer(kpathsearch) for X
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/keramida$
When I try typesetting:
\definetypeface [zapf] [cg] [calligraphy] [chancery]
\switchtotypeface [zapf] [12pt,cg]
\starttext
Foo bar.
\stoptext
All I get is an error like:
% (/usr/local/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex)kpathsea: Running
mktextfm uzcmi8t
% mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode;
input uzcmi8t
% This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4)
%
% kpathsea: Running mktexmf uzcmi8t
% ! I can't find file `uzcmi8t'.
% <*> ...=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input uzcmi8t
%
% Please type another input file name
% ! Emergency stop.
When I try using the Palatino font, as shown in `showfont.pdf':
\definetypeface [palatino] [rm] [serif]
[palatino] [default] [encoding=ec]
\switchtotypeface [palatino] [12pt,rm]
\starttext
Foo bar.
\stoptext
I get very similar errors:
% (/usr/local/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex)kpathsea: Running
mktextfm uplr8t
% mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode;
input uplr8t
% This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4)
%
% kpathsea: Running mktexmf uplr8t
% ! I can't find file `uplr8t'.
% <*> ...:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input uplr8t
%
% Please type another input file name
% ! Emergency stop.
Am I missing something, is there anything I can do to download these
files, or generate them in my teTeX installation?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Giorgos
