Re: [NTG-context] Asian Language Support
Dear Henman-san, So a question might be can ptex be used with ConTeXt? as the the engine? Would this wowrk? With ConTeXt mark II (not mark IV), you can use ptex as the engine. Such support is included in W32TeX. (I don't know whether TeXLive 2011 supports it.) You can type `texexec --eptex foo'. If you want to try it, please read share/texmf/doc/context/context-w32. txt and test-eptex.tex.

Re: [NTG-context] Asian Language Support
Just a remark: for cjk one can best use the mkiv feature to combine fonts; there are probably some examples of korean fonts mixed with e.g. palatino or times in the email archive. Here is a sample typescript file for mixed Korean and English fonts suggested by Hans. Using this file, I can use Korean font for Korean and Palatino for English. It works well. You can modify this file for your purpose. Good luck!

Re: [NTG-context] Asian Language Support
Hi, Hans,
A question for Yusuke: what script name should we use?
It is a difficult question. In Chinese or Korean case,
what they have chosen? In Japanese, we need to prepare a
lot of characters for font set if they complete Adobe-Japan-1.5
or something. So, some font vendors publish the font sets
including only kana-region and latin/number-region (and
elementary school level kanjis). In this case, script=kana
might be ok, but if the font set has all the characters
of Adobe-Japan-1.5 region, then script=kana is too impolite.
Moreover, in pTeX world, we use 'kanji' for this kind, but
we need to rethink 'kanji' is most appreciate or not.
Thanks,
-- Yusuke.
