Re: [NTG-context] greek
Hi Thomas, Thanks for the explanations. Oh sorry, that's an error that crept in when handling of active characters was changed a couple of weeks ago; I changed it in my own copy on my box but forgot to upload a new version... Will upload today. Thanks. Looking forward to the new version. B. \usemodule[oldgreek] works with the default font or with Teubner (mark ii and mark iv). But not with Gentium, although the TrueType fonts are installed in texmf-localfontstruetypegreekgentium: !pdfTeX error: pdftex (file gentium): Font gentium at 720 not found == Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced! That's bizarre. What are the names of the truetype files that you have installed? GenAI102.TTFGenAR102.TTFGenI102.TTFGenR102.TTF I didn't install these, they were in your zip.

The problem is that I am not a native English speaker and I can't seem to come up with a reasonable (short!) wording for the collection of named computing objects that alter the font handling. As this is a first attempt, corrections and suggestions are very welcome. The next goal will be the creation of a chapter that deals with font installation and definitions. Thank you! I learned something new. But I'd also like to suggest a few changes: Table 1.1 is not clear to me: I tried to make this more clear by altering both text and table a little. Perhaps explain that pt means point and is 1/72 inch. Ok, did that. In 1.2 etc. perhaps use italics instead of slanted as example - typographically slanted is a monstrosity. Did that too. Your (or ConTeXt's) definition of typographical terms is a bit unusual: usual(?) vs. ConTeXt clan(?) family familystyle(s) face alternative Unusual, yes. But hard to alter, because this is the terminology that context has used for over a decade now. The current english names are about what you get if you translate the correct dutch typographical terms into english literally, btw. i.e. - Computer Modern is a font clan (in German: Schriftsippe), some fonts of different styles that are designed to work together I've seen super family and collection, but this is the first time ever I heard the word font clan (I knew about Schriftsippe). - ... bold is a font face (in German: Schriftschnitt (cut)), or just a font (file) This one is pretty harmless, in my opinion. alternative is not actually confusing, just a little abnormal/ I could use font class instead of typeface in the manual, that would help alleviate at least one source of confusion and because the use of 'typeface' in context is fairly new, it should be ok. It makes the \definetypeface macro name appear at bit funny, but that is not a big deal (there are more funny macro names, anyway). The big problem is family vs. style, and I do not dare to change it: that would render all already released font documentation useless.

Perhaps explain that pt means point and is 1/72 inch. Ok, did that. And I guess Martin is right WRT pt vs. bp In 1.2 etc. perhaps use italics instead of slanted as example - typographically slanted is a monstrosity. Did that too. Thank you! Your (or ConTeXt's) definition of typographical terms is a bit unusual: usual(?) vs. ConTeXt clan(?) family family style(s) face alternative Unusual, yes. But hard to alter, because this is the terminology that context has used for over a decade now. The current english names are about what you get if you translate the correct dutch typographical terms into english literally, btw. ok; of course stay with ConTeXt's terminology, but perhaps explain that to those who know other terms. i.e. - Computer Modern is a font clan (in German: Schriftsippe), some fonts of different styles that are designed to work together I've seen super family and collection, but this is the first time ever I heard the word font clan (I knew about Schriftsippe). ...if you translate the correct german term into englishh literally... ;-) That's why I used quotes. - ... bold is a font face (in German: Schriftschnitt (cut)), or just a font (file) This one is pretty harmless, in my opinion. alternative is not actually confusing, just a little abnormal/ I could use font class instead of typeface in the manual, that would help alleviate at least one source of confusion and because the use of 'typeface' in context is fairly new, it should be ok. It makes the \definetypeface macro name appear at bit funny, but that is not a big deal (there are more funny macro names, anyway). The big problem is family vs. style, and I do not dare to change it: that would render all already released font documentation useless. see above: any terminology is good, if it is consistent and well defined/explained. Perhaps you could *all* font switches in one table, maybe as an appendix. Commands like \ss, \bf \ssbf etc. you mean? that list is open- ended ... You're right.
