Out of curiosity: does timing change if you delete everything but

maybe just set cont-sys.rme, and enable palatino there, then the

I guess the tXeTnoC is indeed a result of improper copy-pasting.

ConTeXt peaple always have used to say that ConTeXt is better than LaTeX.
I have been recieving emails from CoNTeXt list and it seems that ConTeXt has
heaps of bugs.
LaTeX rocks...!
Sorry, but I just can't

Mojca,
Thanks for all you time in helping out. I'm still having problems. The
\quote and \quotation work. However, as you pointed out, the en, em and
apostrophe do not work.
In addition, [features=default] did not compile, but
I think the error I got was not having enough sleep :-) because I worked on it

Fontforge shows no ligatures for Adobe Garamond; however, it does show
ligatures for the Tallys fonts. So that probably explains why there are no
ligatures.
However, the font has a lot of kerning pairs, but I don't seem to be able turn

If you are using XeTeX or LuaTeX, then you should remove all the [ec]

Some clarification is needed though:
1.) You could (in theory) use some replacements for `` and to

I am currently trying to get the mara font loaded into XeTeX. Here's some
information about the font (via fontforge):
file: marafont.ttf
Fontname: MaraFontNFPlain:
Family Name: MaraFontNF Plain:
(yes, the colons are in the name)
I've tried a couple of ways, using both the fontname

Have you tried prepending name: to the font name, like I explained
yesterday?

I tried prepending name and it didn't work. I also tried file:marafont,
but that didn't work either. Your code yesterday was great and I have not
tried to plug in the mara font into a typescript. There are some fonts that I
just want to put in one section of the text without having to write
I also tried plugging it into the typescript (not what I want), but that

One thing of possible interest is that when I load the font in fontforge, I
get the following warning:
Bad Font Name
The Postscript font name MaraFontNF Plain: is invalid. It should be
printable ASCII, must not contain (){}[]%/ or space and must be shorter than
63 characters.
Is the colon at
Is the colon at the end of the name a problem?
No, the message says the problem is with the space character, but it
is of little concern here (XeTeX doesn't use PostScript font names at
all).
Is it the font from http://www.perry.com/disney/indy/marafont.html?
It seems to have quite a number
101 - 200 of 700 matches
