Hi there, I have a rather general question regarding the options for math fonts in ConTeXt. As I understand from reading older posts to this list, there are currently efforts for making either pagella math or an updated modern font available. I am looking into this for quite some time now, but did not find a solution of my liking.
I am currently using \setupbodyfont[modern-designsize] However, I like the rendering of latex's mathpazo a lot better, since in modern design the math font does not match the modern text font. Plain pagella currently is no option, since (i) fraktur is not supported (see P.S.) (ii) I am not happy with px math (integrals…) Another option would to use tex gyre pagella math (which is different from the currently available \setupbodyfong[pagella], right?!): ftp://ftp.mpi-sb.mpg.de/pub/tex/mirror/ftp.dante.de/pub/tex/fonts/tex-gyre-math/doc/presentation-tg_pagella_math.pdf As I understand I'd have to put the tff / otf files into a folder that is recognized by ConTeXt (right?!). However, downloading the zip from here: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/tex-gyre-math gives me only the "regular" fonts (i.e. there is no math - or am I missing something?!) Are there any other options, is there someone listening, who was able to mimic mathpazo (I know about math times, but there's money envolved, which I'd rather like to not spend) and could provide me with a solution or are there other options, which I have overseen? I have had a look at the descriptions about handling fonts in the manual(s), but I did not really get into it. I'd have to come up with a solution of my liking in a couple of months (deadline). Your help is very much appreciated. Sorry for bringing this up, especially since it is a stupid discussion about taste, but I spend too much time on this and am quite sure that someone out there must have a solution to these problems or at least point me into the right direction...
