[NTG-context] dvips; hungarumlaut
Hi Evereybody,
I have written a short tex file. Then I have made a dvi file by command:
texexec --dvi proba.tex. A dvi and a ps files have been made. Dvi is ok,
but ps not. I have deleted the ps file. In order to make a ps file I
have inserted command: dvips proba.dvi. I have received an error message:
This is dvips(k) 5.96 Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software
(www.radicaleye.com)
dvips: ! Couldn't find header file tex.pro.
Note that an absolute path or a relative path with .. are denied in -R2
mode.
and
In document mp-cb-en.pdf on page 73 and in ms-cb-en.pdf on page 95 in
the table hungarumlaut (\H{u}) does not appear correctly. Hungarumlaut
is a doubleacute on o, O, u, and U. Hungarumlaut or doubleacute is used
solely in Hungarian language.
Best regards,
Istvan

[NTG-context] changing typeface
Hi, Would somebody explain me in detail, how I can use for example typeface Times New Roman instead of Computer Modern? Which command to use and how? I need syntax in detail. Descriptions are obscure for me. I need codes in detail for fontnames too.

Re: [NTG-context] changing typeface
Hi, Ok, I have seen showfont.pdf, and have tried \definetypeface [times] [rm] [serif] [times] [default] [encoding=ec] \switchtotypeface [times] [12pt,rm], and they work. But what are [rm], [encoding=ec] and why is included [times] twice? I do not understand the syntax. I have seen both mfonts.pdf and mtexfont.pdf, but I have found nothing, which would form the basis for start. Of course I have seen cont-enp.pdf too.

[NTG-context] ConTeXt possibilities
Dear Everybody, My name is Istvan Hollerbach. I am still looking at ConTeXt.

Can I write a document for example in Sanskrit? Being a beginner, of course I will neither use xypic for a some length of time, nor I will write a document in Sanskrit.
