Oh, thank’s for adding this. I’ll probably need to check whether these issues 
still exist.

Not entirely free last time I looked, and had issues with the rendering of its 
lowercase ‹o› (which I suspected was deliberately introduced in the free 
version, although that may be unwarranted geek paranoia! :-)

BTW Doulos SIL is their Times clone, although it at least used to lack italics, 
which makes it a no-starter for most comparatists who use italics for object 
language.

Dear list,

I am currently working on a critical edition as well, and follow the discussion 
with interest. For the time being, I prefer Latex over Context for this project.

In addition to Jürgen's remarks on transcription fonts, a small contribution:

Arabists and turcologists working with transcriptions used to have similar 
problems. In the nineties I adapted existing postscript fonts with 
Fontographer. I also made sure to copy kerning information from extant letters 
(e.g. a) to new ones (e.g. ā) with the required diacritic (usually dots, dashes 
and haceks). This was in the pre-unicode era.

Today there is the Brill font which is quite extended, yet I am not sure if it 
can be used freely in other publications.

Adapations to extant fonts can still be made with the open source app 
FontForge. Do not hesitate to contact me offline if you need help on this.

The technically excellent free Google Noto Serif/Sans/Sans Mono fonts have 
quite extensive coverage of Latin/Greek/Cyrillic scripts. As an 
Indo-Europeanist turned programmer/editor/translator doing frequent forays into 
Uralic and Afroasiatic when wearing a more general historical linguistics hat I 
have found nothing missing.
(If you need a Mono Font make sure to use Noto Sans Mono which has better 
coverage than Noto Mono!)

https://fonts.google.com/noto

Much the same can be said of the Charis SIL font from SIL International, 
although the current release lags behind Noto when it comes to coverage.

https://software.sil.org/charis/

(Make sure to look at the downloads page for info on downloadable customized 
fonts!)

There is also the Gentium SIL font with Greek and Cyrillic coverage as well as 
Latin, although its design may be a bit too swashy for academic work.

If something *is* missing these are all licensed under the quite permissive 
Open Font License

https://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi=OFL-FAQ_web

Publishers may have their own (ideas about) fonts but for course materials, 
handouts, manuscripts, databases and the like these are excellent. I do all my 
work in the Vim text editor (with Noto Sans Mono) and *TeX/Pandoc.

Hi Lukas,

I’m afraid you missed to install the fonts in ConTeXt.


- the resulting file uses LMRoman instead of WorkSans,

Otherwise, \definefontfamily won’t work (even if using
"tf={file:work-sans.light.otf}").

Do you have any problem installing fonts in ConTeXt? This would make
things easier.


- Note that all WorkSans files:
[...]
  are placed in the same directory as the main source file. (I can zip
them and upload somewhere for testing purposes.)


The designer provides the latest version of the font on github without 
the change in file name from your source.


https://github.com/weiweihuanghuang/Work-Sans


This was a feature already discussed in the past.

"\definefont[Test][file:your-font-file.otf]" should work, but I never
used this approach.


Works at the moment only when the fonts in a place where ConTeXt can 
find them.

Here’s an example of a simple typescript using "file":


\definefontfeature[smallcaps][default][smcp=yes]

\starttypescriptcollection[charis]

\starttypescript [serif] [charis]
\definefontsynonym [Charis-Roman]   [file:CharisSIL-R.ttf]
\definefontsynonym [Charis-Italic]  [file:CharisSIL-I.ttf]
\definefontsynonym [Charis-Bold][file:CharisSIL-B.ttf]
\definefontsynonym [Charis-BoldItalic]  [file:CharisSIL-BI.ttf]
\definefontsynonym [Charis-Roman-Caps]  [Charis-Roman]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript [serif] [charis] [name]
\setups[font:fallback:serif]
\definefontsynonym [Serif][Charis-Roman][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]  [Charis-Italic][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold][Charis-Bold][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic]  
[Charis-BoldItalic][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted] [Charis-Italic][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldSlanted] 
[Charis-BoldItalic][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]
[Charis-Roman-Caps][features=smallcaps]
\stoptypescript


\starttypescript [charis] % doesn’t make a lot of sense
  \definetypeface [charis] [rm] [serif] [charis] [default]
  \definetypeface [charis] [ss] [sans]  [heros]  [default]
  \definetypeface [charis] [tt] [mono]  [modern]   [default]
  \definetypeface [charis] [mm] [math]  [default]   [default]
\stoptypescript


\stoptypescriptcollection

Otherwise, \definefontfamily won’t work (even if using
"tf={file:work-sans.light.otf}").

Do you have any problem installing fonts in ConTeXt? This would make
things easier.

This was a feature already discussed in the past.

"\definefont[Test][file:your-font-file.otf]" should work, but I never
used this approach.

I think you need to mix fonts into a typeface with something similar to
a typescript (but this is all Greek to me).

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts from various .otf to work with \bold, \emph, \bf, \bfa ...

[context]

Hello Pablo,

thank you for showing the way; unfortunately, still something is 
missing:


- the resulting file uses LMRoman instead of WorkSans,

- the log confirms:

"selectfont  > The requested font 'WorkSans' has no files for the 
'tf' alternative, Latin Modern is used instead".


- Note that all WorkSans files:

  work-sans.bold.otf
  work-sans.bold-italic.otf
  work-sans.light.otf
  work-sans.light-italic.otf

are placed in the same directory as the main source file. (I can zip 
them and upload somewhere for testing purposes.)


- In your code bellow, I cann't see any link to any work-sans .otf file 
name.


  - Does it mean that that ConTeXt browses its database of "known" 
fonts, searches for all fonts which contain "identification" as 
"WorkSans" (given from your \definefontfamily...[WorkSans])?


- Also, I see assignments [tf={style:light},it={style:lightitalic}]:

  - Should also an assignment for "bf=[style:...]" be provided?

  - How ConTeXt gets to know from "it={style:lightitalic}" that file 
"work-sans.light-italic.otf" should be used?


Sorry for elementary questions, I'm still "in captivity" of swtching 
fonts, their styles and font sizes by clicking a combo in Word toolbar 
(although I quit using Word about 15 ys ago). And although I'm aware of 
different dealing with fonts in TeX (and in professional typesetting in 
general), it's often difficult for me to imagine how exactly TeX 
switchches fonts, what is the relationship between (and how the comands 
cooperate) \definefontfamily, \setupbodyfontenvironment, \setupbodyfont, 
\definefontsynonym, \definefont, typescripts, simplefonts module and 
also what is the relations among parameters to the-above commands.


So any practical samples (e.g. here discussed) helps me much.

Best regards,

Lukas



Hi Lukas,

I think this is what you might need:

\definefontfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[WorkSans]
[tf={style:light}, it={style:lightitalic}]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]

\setupbodyfontenvironment
[default]
[a=1.2,
 b=2.4,
 c=3.6,
 d=4.8,
 em=italic]

{\bf bold}\\
{\it italic}\\
{\bi bold italic}\\
{\tfa roman}\\
{\bfb bold}\\
{\itc italic}\\
{\bid bold italic}\\
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

I hope it helps,

[NTG-context] Fonts from various .otf to work with \bold, \emph, \bf, \bfa ...

[context]

Hello,

although font switching used to be discussed here and I studied wiki 
about font changing, I don't switch fonts in ConTeXt very often and my 
"maximum" font change was provided by \setupbodyfont[(e.g. termes)].


Now I am in the situation that I need to use fonts defined in:

  work-sans.bold.otf
  work-sans.bold-italic.otf
  work-sans.light.otf
  work-sans.light-italic.otf

(all from https://www.1001fonts.com/work-sans-font.html)

so that:

- normal text and math (nothing special - just subscripts) would be 
typeset with work-sans.light.otf

- \bold (\bf) would use work-sans.bold.otf,
- \emph (\em and \it) would use work-sans.light-italic.otf,
- \bi would use work-sans.bold-italic.otf
- also commands \bfa, \bfc, ... would use work-sans.bold.otf scaled 
somehow (probably by multiples of 1.2).


Some help setting it up and making it work would be appreciated...

Best regards,

Lukas

Beautiful, indeed!

Btw, I was thinking whether Fonts in ConTeXt book is still relevant (from the
ToC I conclude it deals with MkIV) aand/or provides enough info so that in case
I buy some 3prd party fonts (I am considering something from
https://mbtype.com/) I'll be able to configure ConTeXt to use them?

Similar concern in regard to layouts and the other book...but, I believe that
both are very useful in any case and ordering them is a small appreciation for
the work done for ConTeXt.

Gour

[NTG-context] Fonts/Layouts in ConTeXt books

[Saša Janiška]

Hello,

I'm putting all my 'eggs' into ConTeXt basket and would like to learn it as
thoroughly as possible.

Considering that I always prefer physical books over starring at my computer
screen, I wonder if the books from the subject are still relevant for learning
about creating layouts and configuring additional (bought extra) fonts in
today's ConText?


Sincerely,
Gour

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts and equations

[Lance Larsen]

Henri,

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried to add the additional fonts, but this
did not seem to make a difference. The math equations render fine, but a
search performed for terms in an equation still does not work when I
specify the font. When I remove the font specification, it works fine.
There must be some difference in the font that is used even if I don't
specify a math font. Any other thoughts about why the math font changes or
how to get a math font that is searchable, or get back to the default math
font?

-Lance

[NTG-context] Fonts and equations

[Lance Larsen]

I have a context document with several equations. One really nice feature
with equations is that by default you can search for variable names in
equation in a PDF reader like acrobat. However, I needed to configure the
document to use arial for the text. Once I do this, the equations are no
longer searchable. I assume something happened to the mathematics font. How
to I change the font for the document text, but keep the math equations
searchable? Is there a way to change the document font, but not affect the
math font? Here is a sample of how I configured the font. The equations are
no longer searchable.

Ahoi,

while I found a workaround for my problem, I still don’t understand the cause:

– I defined a family of Gentium and Delicious in a typescript file (as attached 
in my previous post),
– If I load this in a minimal example, as above, all is well.
– If I load this in an environment, the fonts are ignored. There are no error 
messages.
– If I change the font size from 9.5pt to any integer size, it works!

Does this ring any bells? What’s wrong with decimal font sizes, and why only in 
a project setup?

Greetlings, Hraban

Sorry for hijacking the other thread.

[NTG-context] fonts

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

At the last context meeting it was decided that he groups will support 
the upcoming stages of the tex gyre font project. The work is done by 
the polish font gurus and so far they have been funded by the user 
groups. However, this time not all groups join in, while still 
substantial funding is needed for this stage that will run for several 
years.


For a while there is already an entry for the project on:

https://www.tug.org/donate/dev.html

If you use the free math fonts you might consider donating there. After 
all, we depend on these fonts and there is still work to do: adding 
symbols to text fonts, a bold (heavy) companion for titling, a sans for 
titling, a monospaced math font for editing and manuals, completion, 
etc. The font folks have always delivered so donations will be well 
spent. ConTeXt has always been the first to use these fonts and I sort 
of assume that we will get these additions done as well, as it will make 
our live so much easier.


Hans

Hello!

Today I was working perfectly but after an OS update, I started to 
have some problems with fonts.


In particular, I use to put the font files (.ttf) in the same 
directory where .tex are placed, but now I'm getting this message:



but I have not moved the font files.

Could you please give some advices to solve this issue?

The simplefonts module (which has been replaced by the \definefontfamily 
command)
can only use fonts which are indexed by ConTeXt, to use fonts in the 
same directory
as your document you need a typescript which loads the file with the 
filename method.

Hello!

Today I was working perfectly but after an OS update, I started to have

In particular, I use to put the font files (.ttf) in the same directory

but I have not moved the font files.

Could you please give some advices to solve this issue?

In this link you guys can check a simple example of my compiling:

It should work normally (if the path specification in the texmfcnf.lua

[NTG-context] Fonts inside eqno{}

[Freddy Omar López Quintero]

Hello all!

I'm interested in change the natural numbering of one equation with \eqno{}
but it does not follow the main font selected.

A minimal example:

%%
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[Linux Biolinum O]
\setmathfont[Linux Biolinum O]

\starttext

I have the following expression

\placeformula
\startformula
y = Z \beta_1 + Y \beta_2 + u
\stopformula

that changes to

% \placeformula
\startformula
y = Z \beta_1 + Y \beta_2 + W_1\tau + u \eqno{ (1')}
\stopformula

\stoptext
​%%​

​I would like the (1') ​keep the same kind of font than (1).

Any hint will be appreciated.

Thanks!

[NTG-context] [fonts] Why does ConTeXt keep telling me "source file is not found" ?

Hi,

I can't seem to make ConTeXt work with system fonts.  Let's take this 
simple example :


-
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=12pt]
\setmainfont[liberationsans]
\starttext

\stoptext

It won't compile :

-

hm, strange. In Ubuntu 14.04:


FWIW, I'm using Fedora 20.



what does

Actually it seems the issue is with kpsepath not searching fonts files 
recursively.  I tried to set OSFONTDIR="/usr/share/fonts//" (with two 
trailing slashes — I even tried more…) but it didn't help, though 
kpsewhich --var-value=OSFONTDIR gives the expected path.


I've ended linking all fonts directly in $HOME/.fonts/, but of course a 
cleaner solution would still be welcome.

Assuming that you are in yor context tree
(/opt/contex, if I read correctly)
make a symlink of /usr/share/fonts/liberation
under tex/texmf-local
so that
tex/texmf-local/liberation
has the ttf fonts.

Then, to be sure,
$ mtxrun --generate

compile this file  test.tex

\usetypescript[liberation]
\setupbodyfont[liberation,12pt]
\starttext
Test text
\stoptext

$ context test.tex


and check  it with
$ pdffonts test.pdf
name type  encoding emb
sub uni object ID
 -  ---
--- --- -
CJLCWM+LiberationSerif   CID TrueType  Identity-H   yes
yes yes 16  0

Again
$ mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=Liberation

In tex/context/base
there are several typescript files
type-imp*mkiv
you can have a look at them.

This is my way to use system font: just copy them into context.
A symlink or a true copy both have pros & cons, but I tend to prefer true
copy
(really, I try to avoid system fonts at all).

[NTG-context] Fonts... bold smallcaps

[Willi Egger]

Hi all,

sorry for bothering you with this.

I have a font Seravek-Regular.otf and Seravek-Bold.otf. It is actually my 
company font.

Now I needed to use bold-smallcaps. But I can not get it working, though 
otfinfo tells, that in the bold font there are smallcaps

In my typescript file I have the following two lines, from which the Regular 
variant works perfectly well.

 \definefontsynonym [SansCaps]  [Seravek-Regular]
[features=smallcaps]
 \definefontsynonym [SansBoldCaps]  [Seravek-Bold]   
[features=smallcaps]

I tried to get bold smallcaps with \bf\sc but without success.

Can anyone point me what to do?

Kind regards

Willi

SansBoldCaps does not have a ‘short form’, afaik.

(or \let\sc\setsmallcaps, somewhere in the setup section, which is what I 
usually do).

Note that this method does not need nor use the SansCaps and SansBoldCaps 
synonyms in the typescript, and that it only works for well-behaved opentype 
fonts. Oh, and it may give you italic smallcaps, something the old ’SansCaps’ 
based method never did.

Best wishes,
Taco

 Many thanks for your fix, Hans.

 It works perfectly fine. The font was an improved conversion from a
 Type1 font I got from CTAN.

 Improved in which way?

Wolfgang,

at least, I added the space character (which is missing in the original
font). I don’t remember if I included other improvements.

The attached newotf-error.log contains the error message.

Since both font files were generated with FontForge, I would like to
know what they are missing to report upstream to the FontForge developers.

Many thanks for your help,

The following command does change the sum sign for example but not the rest:

\definefallbackfamily [mainface] [math] [Latin Modern Math]
[preset=math:mathematicaloperators,tf=name:latinmodernsans,scale=1.2]

BTW: Why do you set the upright, italic etc. styles by hand?

 I am also interesting by knowing where I can find all the features

The presets are defined in font-eel.mkvi with the \definefontfamilypreset

Re: [NTG-context] fonts and function in math mode

[Flavien Lambert]

Thanks Wolfgang. I set it by hand because I was using the light version and
the bold version of the light one does not exist ;) I just put regular for
the example.

Oh, then my text would be misleading. How about using this as the help text?

help text
--all show all found instances

...
examples of searches:

mtxrun --script font --list somename (== --pattern=*somename*)

[NTG-context] fonts list

[Vyatcheslav Y.]

Hi,

What is modern way to see the list of available fonts?
mtxrun --script fonts --list does not work anymore.

Seems like a lot changed while I was not paying attention to ConTeXt )

The help text mentions this, but somewhat cryptically --- it's not
quite clear that --all requires --list. Maybe mention that, like so?

--list --name list installed fonts, filter by name [--pattern]
--list --spec list installed fonts, filter by spec [--filter]
--list --file list installed fonts, filter by file [--pattern]

--pattern=str filter files using pattern
--filter=list key-value pairs
- --all show all found instances
+ --all show all found instances (combine with --list)
--infogive more details
--track=list  enable trackers
--statistics  some info about the database

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts problems with ConTeXt MKIV (LuaTeX)

Dear all,

I have to use a special font (DIN) for my document. This font have a
really limited number of caracters.

Previously I was using ConTeXt MKII with no problems. After migrating to
ConTeXt MKiV the math formula and list doesn’t work due to the font.
It's like the charset used for the formula and the list bullet are not
available. I have not this issue with the same font with ConTeXt MKII.

The code used to load the font is not the same for the two version. With
MKIV I use the simplefonts module, with MKII I use typescript. Both code
are available below.

Do you have any idea how could I use DIN font with MKIV without breaking
math formula ?

Thanks in advance for any hint



I could reproduce the problem with this simple example:

\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setsansfont[nimbus]

\starttext
An equation $e^{\pi i}+1=0$, or as a
\stoptext

Any idea why it doesn't work ?

Uh...well the situation is the following
1) I'm using ubuntu 12.04 lts 32 bit
2) I don't use tex* from ubuntu
3) I manually install the latest mkiv in /opt/luatex/context-standalone
(for mkii and mkiv only )
4) I manually install texlive under /opt/luatex/texlive/2012 (for latex
only)

You have a more-than-a-month-old mkiv, which currently  means unsupported.

I have updated using ConTeXt Standalone.

It works nicely with the last stable version (sh ./first-setup.sh 
--context=current) but if I update to last unstable version (sh 
./first-setup.sh) I have another error with the \page command...


By the way with the stable version everything seems to work !

Re: [NTG-context] fonts

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Hans,

If I understand it correctly, with the \setupbodyfontenvironment one can define 
various sizes and then apply them to various styles such as \it, \bf, etc. This 
is indeed great!
But in your example the math fonts disappear: is this intended?

Best regards: OK

Hi Hans,

If I understand it correctly, with the \setupbodyfontenvironment one can define 
various sizes and then apply them to various styles such as \it, \bf, etc. This 
is indeed great!
But in your example the math fonts disappear: is this intended?


Actually this is already an old feature. Math shows up okay here. What 
version do you run?



Best regards: OK

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts in Mk IV -- \definefontalternative documentation?

[Christian]

Hello and welcome to the world of ConTeXt!

I was in you place about one year ago :)

The best way to get started with fonts is probably the simplefonts module. I 
haven't used anything since I started and was able to do everything I wished 
for, so far. 

Installation:
Run
first-setup.sh --modules=t-simplefonts
if you use Context standalone (if not, refer to 
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules for installation and download links).

Then this file should get you started:

%%% BEGIN
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\definefontfeature[default][default][mode=node,script=latn,kern=yes,palt=yes,tlig=yes,trep=yes,init=yes,size=yes]
 %some default features
\definefontfeature[frac][default][frac=yes] % opentype 'frac' feature for nice 
fractions
\definefontfeature[sups][default][sups=yes]
\definefontfeature[onum][default][onum=yes] % old-style figures
\definefontfeature[lnum][default][lnum=yes]
\setupsimplefonts[expansion=quality, protrusion=quality] % sort of microtype 
thing. makes things look better =)
\setmainfont[Myriad Pro] % set Myriad as main font
\definesimplefonttypeface[sb][Myriad Pro][regularfont=myriadprosemibold, 
italicfont=myriadprosemiboldit] % define a second font called 'sb' for semibold

\starttext

Test normal\\
{\sb Test semibold}\\
{\sb \it Test semibold}\\
{\bf Test bold}\\

Opentype font feature demonstration:\\
{\addff{onum} 1234} 1234\\
{\addff{frac} 1/17}
\stoptext
%%% END


 Hello, I am coming to ConTeXt from LaTeX and have a typescript question. I
 was searching for information on the mailing list about defining semibold and
 other font variants, and found the following. Can you tell me if further
 information is only available in the book context mkiv -- Fonts or can I 
 find it
 somewhere else? I have searched through the revised Fonts chapter of the
 ConTeXt manual but the \definefontalternative macro and the approach
 described here are not documented there.
 
 The approach below works for me if I adapt it to Adobe Garamond Premier
 Pro, but I am attempting to build a typescript for that handles optical 
 weights,
 small caps, etc and I have not been able to make it work yet.
 
 Before I try posting a minimal example, I would like to be sure that I am
 looking at the right documentation. I have looked at the Fonts in LuaTeX
 page on Contextgarden as well, but I don't think I have a full understanding
 of typescripts using OSFONTDIR fonts yet. If there is something I am missing
 please let me know.
 
 Thanks,
 PPN

Peter wants to use a font with optical sizes and this isn’t yet supported by 
the simplefonts module.

Huh, he wrote it works for GaramondPremPro and in his code he's using MyriadPro 
-- which, to my knowledge, does not come in optical sizes.

I thought he is struggling with the remaining weights besides regular and bold 
(light, semibold, black) for Myriad, so I posted a simplefonts solution to that.
Can't help with typescripts, though.

Chrisitan

whatever you do ... \fontname is a primitive so should not be overloaded

Mh, no luck then. I tested your example without problems (log file

Do you set any TeX related environmental variables by hand?

Re: [NTG-context] fonts

[Hans van der Meer]

Still a mystery to me. In your logfile I see the line
used files 16: filename=AntykwaTorunska-Regular | filetype=otf | 
format=otf | 
foundname=R:/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/antt/AntykwaTorunska-Regular.otf | 
usedmethod=database
I therefore concluse in your system ConTeXt has found the reference for 
\setupbodyfont[antykwa].

In my setup I have linked /Users/hans/TeX/context/tex/texmf-fonts to 
/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/fonts. The are all sorts of otf files 
including those in public/antt. 
On building with mtxrun --script fonts --reload I see in the log:
fonts   | names | scanning /Users/hans/TeX/context/tex/texmf-fonts for 
otf files
fonts   | names | 47688 entries found, 528 otf files checked, 528 okay
My conclusion: these file should be in the database now.
Corroborated by mtxrun --script fonts --list --name antykwa -
antykwatorunskaregular   antykwatorunskaregular   AntykwaTorunska-Regular.otf

Still context run has in the log:

(/Users/hans/TeX/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/type-otf.mkiv)

The latter shows that antykwa is not found in the context run but mtxrun did! I

Not booth are looking for the same thing: context looks for a typescript 
definition, mtxrun for a font. I suspect your problem is not that the font is 
not found, but that you are inadvertedly mixing the standalone context macros

Try removing the symlink in texmf-fonts, rerun mtxrun --script fonts --reload, 
and see what happens then (all needed files are in the standalone distribution).

Which is already wrong, afaik. It should *not* be looking for a 
typescript file, because the typescript 'antykwa' has already been set

up in type-otf.mkiv (it *did* load that file, I trust?).

That's all.


Sure. As I wrote above, there should not *be* any typescript file, and 
the actual fonts are named *antt*, not '*antykwa*'



And finally, the unexplained cambria crash?


Not looked at that yet, and it is usually unwise to attempt to fix two 
problems at the same time, but my first guess in that case is simply 
that you have not installed the font. I get:


$ mtxrun --script fonts --list --name cambria\* --all

cambria cambria   cambria.ttc   index:  1
cambriamath cambriamath   cambria.ttc   index:  0
cambriamathnormal   cambriamath   cambria.ttc   index:  0
cambrianormal   cambria   cambria.ttc   index:  1

$ luatools cambria.ttc
/home/taco/texmf/fonts/truetype/cambria.ttc


For the sake of completeness


Have you posted a full log yet? If not, perhaps that is wise (otherwise
I missed it).

solved by Wolfgang :)


But why, isn't it in the distribution?


Because Microsoft is not in the habit of giving stuff away for free. As 
with all commercial fonts, there is a simple rule: do not use the 
typescript if you do not own the font.

O, how wonderful is the internet-community. Indeed, that \usetypescript does 
the trick. Thanks, one problem less here!
I guess from Wolfgang's comment that newer vrsions of ConTeXt can do without 
the \usetypescript?

As for the cambria, I now see its name is has been typeset in boldface in the 
font book. And that solves that problem also, because the font is not here.

no, it depends, as it's part of a fallback sequence:

(1) manually defined typeface - \usetypescript for relevant cases
(2) predefined typeface - automatically chosen
(3) when no typescript - loading type-typeface

etc

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts in ConTeXt is now available from boekplan.com

[Tom]

Is this book going to be available in the U.S.? If so, where can I find it?
If not, may I suggest that you upload your PDFs to CreateSpace.com and have
it made available to buyers through Amazon.com. I normally don't like
limiting a book's availability to a single reseller, but for a niche book it
makes sense. There is no cost to upload the book but an optional $39 fee
that reduces print costs dramatically. There is no inventory cost as books
are printed only when customers order copies. If multiple titles are to be
published, using Lightning Source may make more sense for serving the U.S.
market.

[NTG-context] Fonts in ConTeXt is now available from boekplan.com

[Taco Hoekwater]

After some delays, thankfully the book Fonts in ConTeXt is now
finally available for immediate ordering.

Fonts in ConTeXt describes how to define and use fonts in ConTeXt
MkIV. In this book, for the first time all existing documentation
related to fonts has been combined into a single document. In 128
pages, the reader is guided through everything there is to know about
fonts in ConTeXt MkIV. The earlier chapters deal with the theory behind
the font subsystem of ConTeXt and explain how to use the font switching
macros. The later chapters deal with defining fonts, for both single
(symbolic) fonts and complete typescripts for font families. Finally,
there are chapters on extending the ConTeXT font system and font
installation.

Fonts in ConTeXt costs 19 euro + pp, and can be ordered from

  http://www.boekplan.com/


Hans and I have decided that there will not be a free PDF version;
ordering a hardcopy is the only way to get this book. Please note
that besides receiving a useful book, you will also be sponsoring
ConTeXt development by doing so!

installation.

ordering a hardcopy is the only way to get this book.

I ordered as well - very nice and clean interface for the 
web shop! Looking forward to reading my copy, and thanks 
for all the work you've put in; 19 Euros is more than 
fair, and I'm happy that part of the money will be going 
into development!

 Fonts in ConTeXt describes how to define and use fonts in ConTeXt
 MkIV. In this book, for the first time all existing documentation
 related to fonts has been combined into a single document. In 128
 pages, the reader is guided through everything there is to know about
 fonts in ConTeXt MkIV. The earlier chapters deal with the theory behind
 the font subsystem of ConTeXt and explain how to use the font switching
 macros. The later chapters deal with defining fonts, for both single
 (symbolic) fonts and complete typescripts for font families. Finally,
 there are chapters on extending the ConTeXT font system and font
 installation.

Why don't put original signs and dedications of the authors on each
copy after, let's say, the first 5 orders after 1hour  the annuncement
in this mailing list ?

The first two :-) That'll make them collectibles that my 
grandchildren can sell at a greatly inflated price...

yes, but in this way less people will be interested, so less moneys
for developers, so less books,
so your collection will be small and with less value...

I've just ordered one. Great way of sponsoring ConTeXt.

Will be ordering also Layouts in ConTeXt as soon as it gets 
available!

[NTG-context] Fonts in MKII

[Tom]

I am confused about using fonts in MKII. Which documentation provides the
best explanation and most accurate of how to use fonts in MKII. I am
particularly interested in using fonts that are bundled in Tex-Live. I will
leave bringing in other fonts till later when I understand the basics.
