Hi, I’m trying to set up a “handwriting” font.
In the example below I’m using Comic Sans, because probably everyone has it
available, IRL I’m using the commercial “Supernett Cn” that has more styles.
(Also, I’m using Alegreya Serif + Sans.)
If I name it "ss/sans/Sans", it works as expected, but with
"hw/handwriting/Handwriting" it only uses the regular font, never other styles.
"mtxrun --script fonts ..." shows that the configured files are found.
Is this a limitation in ConTeXt, or what did I wrong?
The handwritten and calligraphic style are limited to upright
alternatives. I can only speculate why this is the case but I guess Hans
owns no font families where this is necessary (e.g. Lucida Bright has
only one file for handwriting and calligraphy).
Adding additional alternatives to both styles is possible but the
included typescripts (e.g. for lucida bright ot) have to be checked and
fixed.
