I'm trying to add a ttf font (Futura) so I can use it in ConTeXt.

I've ran
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all |less
looked at a ttf font that was there, copied my Futura ttfs to the same
directory it was in, and ran
mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force

But I still can't find it in
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all |less

nor can I use it in ConTeXt.
(The filenames don't have spaces.)

The curious thing is that the luatex cache has it.
It's listed in
/home/sandra/.texmf-var/luatex-cache/generic/names/luaotfload-names.luc
under various names, all starting with "futuralt".


Curiously,
/home/sandra/.texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/[number]/fonts/otf/futuralt-book.tm[ac]
exist.

But the only "book-" related name in luaotfload-names.luc is
futuraltbook, not futuralt-book. Neither worked in ConTeXt, though.

How do I move forward with this, how do I add ttfs so that ConTeXt
understand them?

when resolving fonts context makes safe filenames for fonts so don't worry about the - being gone

the fact that there is a luc file means that the font has been loaded so the question is: how does your tex code look

what happens if you put file: before a name?
