as with all these font relate issues

keep in mind that the people involved in math support in mkiv (i.e. 
going unicode) already spent quite some time on it and matching unicode 
slots to whatevere font that might provided missing glyphs takes a lot 
of time; if you miss things, you can try to locate what matching fonts 
has it and provide us the information (mapping) so that we can look at 
it and possibly integrate it (also keep in mind that eventually we will 
have new lm and gyre math fonts so getting everything 100% complete now 
is not our main objective)

What do all the other LaTeX users do? Do you have link to any
TeX-generated document as example?


You can also try creating a virtual math font that uses a text font that 
has upright greek letters (CM Unicode maybe). LM fonts don't have upright 
greek, so there is little that ConTeXt can do.

Times math should work in mkii, but I don't know if you are able to
use it or not or if you really need some MKIV features.

You may try the font created by Khaled or Cambria Math. Fixing italic
latin letters in txmath should not be too difficult, but it
nevertheless takes some work and it's not ready yet.

Vyatcheslav, if you want upright greek letters, you should really consider 
using an opentype math font (cambria, asana, irianis ADF math).


we could (for the moment) map the lower range greek to italic (unless we have 
a matching font with upright)


I see. LM fonts do not have upright greek characters. In that case then 
lcgreek=normal should not be used.


Extra remappings can be tricky (we then should also be checking sans serif 
and bold fonts, and remapping them if the font is incomplete.

Hello,


Vyatcheslav, if you want upright greek letters, you should really 
consider using an opentype math font (cambria, asana, irianis ADF math). 


Aditya, I'm trying to use math provided with Termes (don't know what 
math fonts are used). But the first thing I stuck is just the opposite 
-- I cannot get Latin letters italized. How I can setup this?
