Re: [NTG-context] how to define a new math symbol
Taco,
I'm not sure I understand your question. I'm using TexLive on a linux system. I
do not use any other fonts other than CM.
The file prodint.afm has the following contents:
StartFontMetrics 4.0

EndCharMetrics
EndFontMetrics
End of file prodint.afm
So based on some of the symb-xxx.tex files, I tried
\loadmapfile[prodint.map]
\definefontsynonym [Prodint] [prodint]
\def\ProdintSymbol#1{\getglyph{Prodint}{\char#1}}
\startsymbolset
\definesymbol[prodi] [\ProdintSymbol{80}]
\definesymbol[Prodi] [\ProdintSymbol{82}]
\definesymbol[PRODI] [\ProdintSymbol{84}]
\stopsymbolset
but texexec stops when mktexfm cannot find the file 'prodint' or it says the
TFM file is missing. Another problem with this approach is the fact that this
does not define a MATH symbol, which is really what I would want. Based on the
LaTeX style file prodint.sty, I'm guessing I'll at least need a command like:
\definemathsymbol [prodi] [op] [prodint] [xx]
but I can't figure out the usage of this command. I also suspect that I can not
used the prodint.tfm file, supplied with the LaTeX package, but need to run
Texfont to create one for ConTeXt. Can you confirm this?
I greatly appreciate any help!
Maarten-Jan

Re: [NTG-context] how to define a new math symbol
Great, it works! Running texexec --pdf test-prodint worked immediately, but xdvi test-prodint.dvi gave me an error relating to mktexpk not being able to create a bitmap font. Solved this problem by running updmap --enable Map prodint.map. I don't think I could have done this myself, as I do not understand some of the steps in your solution. Thank you very much!

[NTG-context] how to define a new math symbol
Hi,
I would like to use of the product integral (a curly \prod-like symbol which is
to \prod what \int is to \sum) in Context. There is a LaTeX package (not
official) available from Richard Gill's website
(http://www.math.uu.nl/people/gill/, all the way at the bottom), which supplies
a .sty file with the following contents:
\ProvidesPackage{prodint}
\DeclareFontFamily{U}{ProdInt}{}
\DeclareFontShape{U}{ProdInt}{m}{n}{- prodint}{}
\DeclareSymbolFont{Prodint}{U}{ProdInt}{m}{n}
\DeclareMathSymbol{\prodi}{\mathop}{Prodint}{80}%80 prodinttext
\DeclareMathSymbol{\Prodi}{\mathop}{Prodint}{82}%82 prodintdisplay
\DeclareMathSymbol{\PRODI}{\mathop}{Prodint}{84}%84 prodintbig
\endinput
It also supplies a bunch of fontfiles, i.e. prodint.{afm,pfa,pfb,tfm}, and a
map file prodint.map. As you can see, the package supplies three commands:
\prodi, \Prodi and \PRODI, corresponding to three sizes.
My question(s): how can I define similar commands (I'm guessing
\definemathsymbol would be required) to use this symbol in Context? Is it
possible to use the fontfiles supplied in the LaTeX package or should Texfont
be used to enable the symbol in Context?
Thanks,
Maarten-Jan
