Good evening!
I want to scale a font loaded via the simplefonts so sans and serif have the
same x-height.
But as soon as I use a font size larger than 12pt, the scaling is somehow off
or
ignored.
Example:
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setupsimplefonts[expansion=quality, protrusion=quality]
\setmainfont[Times New Roman]
\setsansfont[Arial][scale=0.863]
\starttext
\setupbodyfont[6pt]
06pt serif xx{\ss xx sans}\\ %fine
\setupbodyfont[12pt]
12pt serif xx{\ss xx sans}\\ %fine, too
\setupbodyfont[14pt]
14pt serif xx{\ss xx sans}\\ %here it starts to be off
\setupbodyfont[16pt]
16pt serif xx{\ss xx sans}\\
\stoptext
Your example is a bit difficult to test here because it's
windows-centric, I don't have Arial on my system. But by looking at it,
you should have something like this in your file before setting the fonts:
\starttypescript [sans] [default] [size]
\definebodyfont [16pt] [ss] [default]
\stoptypescript
\definebodyfontenvironment[16pt]
and so on for other arbitrary sizes. ConTeXt doesn't define complete
environments for every imaginable size (but I imagine Wolfgang may come
up with a clever solution within his module).
