That is how Euler capital letters are supposed to look. It imitates the 
handwriting of mathematicians, which is upright and not italic. I do not 
know if there is a font that contains italic capital greek letters to 
match euler. 


As you say, the hardwritten appearance is a feature of the euler fonts,
and I don't think you can find a matching font elsewhere. Hermann Zapfs
design is so distinctive that everything else will look out of place.

Thank you for the information. I can still bear to use upright \Omega.

Thanks. I also want to know how to make euscript \mathcal like this.

Since euscript is part of amsfonts now. I tried amsl module, but found no
effect. May I know how to trig euscript mathcal?

Hi Zhaopeng,

I have no problem here, just \usemodule[amsl] and $\cal K$ provides a fancy $K$

To use euler as your main math typescript, you can use

\definetypeface[mainface][mm][math][euler][euler][encoding=texnansi]

with an appropriate roman font (usually, I use palatino for text, and 
artemisia for presentations).


If you just want to use euler caligraphic, without changing other math 
fonts (although I do not think that euler blends well with lm), you can 
modify the idea of http://wiki.contextgarden.net/rsfs



Since euscript is part of amsfonts now. I tried amsl module, but found no
effect.


I personally consider amsl module to be deprecated. Currently, context has 
alternative ways of doing most of what amsl used to do. I would suggest 
against using it.

As Zhichu said, \cal gives exactly euscripts.

[NTG-context] I need bold math italic and symbols

Hi,

Can anyone show me how to write math contents in bold and italic fonts? {\bf
} can only produce upright letters. In LaTeX, we can make use of the command
\pmb for this purpose. Is there any shortcut like this in Context? Thanks.
