i'm not sure what you mean but you can force types by adding .tfm or 
.afm etc (more low level control os possible but not adviced)


anyhow, encodings make no sense any more, so when readign a type 1 i 
read the amf file and remap to unicode ... the luatex backend itself 
will create subfonts when the number of used chars is  256

[NTG-context] Module installation

2009-07-03 Thread Wolfgang Schuster

Installation of modules
===


Basics
––

The installation of extra files in TeX (called modules in ConTeXt) can  
be hard
for people how are new in TeX or aren't interested in TeX programming  
themselve.


According to the TDS (TeX directory structure) and the ConTeXt  
developers user

written files reside under the path

$TEXMF/tex/context/third/modulename/files

in the private TeX directory ($TEXMF), private directories can have  
the names


• texmf-local
• texmf-extra
• texmf-project

but there existence depend on the TeX distribution and texmf-local is  
the most

common one.


Installation by hand


When you want to install a new module which is available as file only  
create
the subdirectories in the way described above and place the file  
there, for
modules which are available as zip files with precreated  
subdorectories you
can unzip the archive in the top-level directory (e.g. texmf-local/)  
and all

files are on the correct place.

After the files are placed at the right place you have to update TeX's  
database

to let it know where it can find the files, this is done for MkII with

mktexlsr (command name depends on the TeX distribution)

and for MkIV with

context --generate


ConTeXt minimals


Users of the ConTeXt minimals dont't have to download the module files  
and unzip
them in the local directory because they can use the 'first-setup' for  
this.


To install for example the simpleslides modules you write

first-setup.sh --extras=t-simpleslides

To install more modules at the same time write

first-setup.sh --extras=t-simpleslides,t-french

The complete list of availables modules in minimals is:

• f-urwgaramond
• f-urwgothic
• t-account
• t-algorithmic
• t-bib
• t-bnf
• t-chromato
• t-cmscbf
• t-cmttbf
• t-construction-plan
• t-degrade
• t-fixme
• t-french
• t-games
• t-gnuplot
• t-layout
• t-letter
• t-lettrine
• t-lilypond
• t-mathsets
• t-simplefonts
• t-simpleslides
• t-taspresent
• t-tikz
• t-typearea
• t-typescripts
• t-vim


TeX Live


# description required

The following modules are available:

• context-account
• context-bnf
• context-chromato
• context-construction-plan

• context-games
• context-gnuplot

at bachotek we discussed this with norbert and he will try to get the 
texmf-fonts and texmf-project trees in the standard texmf.cnf setup


another issue discussed was texmx*/fonts/data/* as path for installing 
fonts as they are shipped (packaged) by vendors - makes sense now that 
we move towards all-opentype
