Yes it helps, thanks; it explains why there was so little response to

After some search I found regular style pictures of it. I was sure, that
it was italic as standard, because that's what "modern" suggests:
compability for current regulations (i.e. regular constants, italic
variables) as well as an attractive style overall. But since Neo Euler
seems to have no italic style, it is of no use for academic purposes,
like in my case.
originally "euler" is a math companion font to "concrete" and it's not
trivial to make en euler with all text styles (maybe some day the tex
gyre project will give it a try) .. btw, the same is true for sans
fonts: at some point one runs out of distinctive features
btw, it also fits with pagella (see type-imp-euler)
The story, to add to the subject of the mail, in case somebody searches
the archive for this, is that I wasn't able to find out is how to change
the math font only, as i like the standard font with
\setupbodyfont[sans] as global setup but not the style of (non-modern)
Euler.
I tried
\definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [Xits Math]
most users who mess with fonts either use the selectfont mechanism or
peek into the type-imp files to see how to set up a combination
but this changes the whole typeface; not what I want.
So the trick is to define the standard font for the rest of the font
variations. The standard font can be found out with \showbodyfont. At
least that's what it suggests. But it gives you "modern-design" as font.
When you use this within \definefontfamily then it gives you nothing,
because the real id of the standard font is "modern". So to change the
math font only and keep the main font standard, you have to use this
command group (just in case somebody looks for it):
\definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Modern] % = serif
\definefontfamily [mainface] [ss] [Modern] % = sans
\definefontfamily [mainface] [tt] [Modern] % = mono (teletype)
\definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [Xits Math] [rscale=1.03] % = math
But as this seems to be so trivial, that few people care, I really have
to wonder why people who test CTX criticise the lack of documentation.
We (especially who haven't been through LaTeX or even TeX) seem to be a
minority.
In what sense?
Anyway, there is quite some documentation (also about fonts) available
(and the context distribution documentation section has examples).
Cheers and thanks, S.

Hi, I have trouble with Neo Euler font after playing around with those
options.

I am pretty sure that before I started mixing the fonts in one single
document, Neo Euler was italic.
Does anybody have a clue what might have went wrong?
Hi Sebastian,
as far as I remember, Neo Euler is a regular font only
(https://github.com/khaledhosny/euler-otf).
Euler is an italic font and it might have the other regular, bold, bold
italic typefaces (I don’t know).
I hope it helps,
Pablo
