[NTG-context] About Times!
Hi all! Okay, that pun was not that good. Anyways... For the first time ever I'm not using one of my own fonts for a document project. I was wondering about Times. The font itself, installed with ConTeXt. So, I tried using the following in my document: \usetypescript[times] \setupbodyfont[times,12pt] It changed to a Times font. Sweet! Now, what sort of Times font is it? :-) Where is it from? Who did it? Has it to do with those Gyre fonts I keep reading about? I need to... well, no, I just like to know these things when it comes to my documents, especially when they are aimed at publication. Thanks!

Gave me TeXGyreTermes-Regular, so that's enough of an answer to look it up by myself. I'm using the minimals. Also $pdfinfo is very useful -- luigi ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
