It is actually a TTF font but the extension confuses ConTeXt (we
discussed this very issue before).
afaik it passes the right unit value so the backend gets confused ... okay,
we could probably specify a font to be truetype when units ~= 1000 but still
... i have no problem with forcing
if units ~= 1000 and format ~= "truetype" then
properties.format = "truetype"
end
if we can assume all opentype fonts to be 1000
No we can't. What we really need is a way for the fontloader to expose
the format in the font table, because it already knows it.
ok, so we need a "format" key in the raw font table ("truetype" or
"opentype")
