I've read the relevant docs (mfonts.pdf, etc) but still can't figure out how
to switch fonts in context.
In LaTeX, I just use \usepackage{times} or \usepackage{utopia} to switch fonts
(just the basic ones came with tetex). I expect something similar in ConTeXt
but that is not the case.
This compiles but doesn't have any effect on fonts, (unknown variant times and
utopia).
\setupbodyfont[times]
\starttext
This is roman, {\bf bold}, {\it italic}, {\bi bold-italic},
{\tfa bigger} and {\tfx smaller}.
\switchtobodyfont[utopia]
This is roman, {\bf bold}, {\it italic}, {\bi bold-italic},
{\tfa bigger} and {\tfx smaller}.
\stoptext
If I follow the instruction on
http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html
and I can create some type-x.tex file for the fonts, like
\usetypescriptfile[type-charter]
\usetypescriptfile[type-utopia]
\usetypescript[Charter]
\usetypescript[Utopia]
\setupbodyfont[MyCharter]
\starttext
This is roman, {\bf bold}, {\it italic}, {\bi bold-italic},
{\tfa bigger} and {\tfx smaller}.
\switchtobodyfont[MyUtopia]
This is roman, {\bf bold}, {\it italic}, {\bi bold-italic},
{\tfa bigger} and {\tfx smaller}.
\stoptext
But shouldn't those typescripts be already set up? I'm not installing new
fonts here. I can see the names 'times', 'helvet', 'palatino' etc in the
system type-*.tex file and those files are read during the compilation. How
can I use them?
I have
\usetypescript [map] [default,\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [berry] [\defaultencoding]
in my $TEXMF/tex/context/user/cont-sys.tex file.
Thanks,
Michael
