Re: [NTG-context] Font error in PDF using ConTeXt and Kepler typeface
Hi all, thanks for your ideas! Could figure out the following: - font files are found in the correct path and cached & loaded properly (no second copies, no name clashes) - issue occurs under Linux as well as Windows - issue is related only to some particular font files of the font family (not all) On April 25, 2023 9:21:57 PM UTC, Bruce Horrocks via ntg-context wrote: >Another check you can do is to run > > $ mtxrun --script font --list --name '--pattern=*kepler*' > >and see if the file for keplerstd-light is the one you are expecting and not a >second copy somewhere that is upsetting things. > > >> On 25 Apr 2023, at 21:40, lynx--- via ntg-context wrote: >> >> Werner: >> This is the one that I think will help the most (taken from the Fonts out of >> Context manual, pp 147 - 148 >> "If you want to use Lucida, all you have to do when you have bought the >> fonts, is to put >> the OpenType files in a place where they can be found, for instance: >> >> tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data/lucida >> >> Of course you need to run mtxrun --generate afterwards so that the files can >> be found. >> >> >> >> On 2023-04-25 12:34, lynx--- via ntg-context wrote: >>> Hello, Werner: >>> Have you tried some diagnostic tests, such as trying to get the PDF output >>> via DVIPS?

Another check you can do is to run $ mtxrun --script font --list --name '--pattern=*kepler*' and see if the file for keplerstd-light is the one you are expecting and not a second copy somewhere that is upsetting things. > On 25 Apr 2023, at 21:40, lynx--- via ntg-context wrote: > > Werner: > This is the one that I think will help the most (taken from the Fonts out of > Context manual, pp 147 - 148 > "If you want to use Lucida, all you have to do when you have bought the > fonts, is to put > the OpenType files in a place where they can be found, for instance: > > tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data/lucida > > Of course you need to run mtxrun --generate afterwards so that the files can > be found. > > > > On 2023-04-25 12:34, lynx--- via ntg-context wrote: >> Hello, Werner: >> Have you tried some diagnostic tests, such as trying to get the PDF output >> via DVIPS?

Re: [NTG-context] Font error in PDF using ConTeXt and Kepler typeface
Werner: This is the one that I think will help the most (taken from the Fonts out of Context manual, pp 147 - 148 "If you want to use Lucida, all you have to do when you have bought the fonts, is to put the OpenType files in a place where they can be found, for instance: tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data/lucida Of course you need to run MTXRUN --GENERATE afterwards so that the files can be found.

Re: [NTG-context] Font error in PDF using ConTeXt and Kepler typeface
Hello, Werner: Have you tried some diagnostic tests, such as trying to get the PDF output via DVIPS? I suspect that you are, in fact, more knowledgeable and experience with ConTeXt than I am, but for what it is worth you may want to look at: * \setupoutput[dvips,acrobat] (SEE: _Context-The Manual_ (Hans Hagen; English, page 24)) * \showbodyfont[Options] (SEE: _Not-so-short Intro to ConTeXt (_J. Ataz-Lopez;English, page 114)) * $ MTXRUN (mtxrun is the _ConTeXt TDS Runner Tool_) command from a terminal window it has has a large number of options for finding the fonts installed, and for querying their characteristics (SEE: _Fonts out of ConTeXt _(Hans Hagen, pg 52 and ff)) Em On 2023-04-25 08:50, Werner Schmidt via ntg-context wrote: > Hi conTeXt folks, > > may I ask again.

Hi conTeXt folks, may I ask again. How could I debug the font typesetting of PDF files with conTeXt? Any help is highly appreciated.
