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.

[NTG-context] Fonts/Layouts in ConTeXt books
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 -- While contemplating the objects of the senses, a person develops attachment for them, and from such attachment lust develops, and from lust anger arises. ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
