Re: [NTG-context] Math and bold font: \definetypeface
To get back to my problem:
The default Ctx bodyfont (CMR) is all right for me, I don't need to change it
(but it's possible, if it should simplify something).
If you don't need CMR, than simply don't use. It does not have greek
boldmath/upright anyway.
If I understand well, the default Ctx font - CMR - is used for typesetting
[bold]math as well. But the problem is that it fails when typesetting bold
Greek letters.
Right.
What code - \typescript, \define???font??? - to use?
Just to make the code $Abc \alpha = {\aSwitchToBoldMath Abc \alpha} = or
\aCommandToTypeBoldMath{Abc \alpha}$ work.
Minimal example that uses Tex Gyre Pagella and Heros for serif and sans, and
either Cambria, Asana, Neo Euler, or XITS for math (comment in your choice and
make sure that context finds the fonts):
\starttypescript [myface]
\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [rm] [serif] [pagella] [default]
\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [ss] [sans] [heros] [default]
\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [tt] [mono] [modern] [default]
%\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [mm] [math] [cambria][default]
%\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [mm] [math] [asana][default]
%\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [mm] [math] [euler][default]
\definetypeface [\typescriptone] [mm] [math] [xits][default]
\stoptypescript
\setupbodyfont[myface]
\starttext
Pagella \par
{\ss Heros} \par
{\tt Modern Typewriter} \par
$Abc \beta = {{\bi Abc} \bf Abc \beta \mathgreekupright \beta}$
\stoptext
Note that Neo Euler does not have italics and there are no fallbacks for
bold/greek italic. So ${\bi A} \bf \beta$ will be displayed as $A \beta$.
Best wishes,
Florian

- thanks for the solution and thanks to all for explanations and again for
patience.

Nice, I see.
see texmf-context/tex/context/base/type-otf.mkiv for lots of examples (BTW:
this is the place, where cambria is defined).
[mm] % OK, [re]define the 'mm' member of the font definition
bundle (= typeface)
[math] % Why this when I just specified math to be [re]defined by
'mm' one line above?
takes the fontsynonym from \starttypescript [math] [cambria] and not from
\starttypescript [cambria].
OK.
again have a look at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TypeScripts and
texmf-context/tex/context/base/type-otf.mkiv. the examples are probably better
than an explanation.

To be honest, this is Greek to me (and I don't mean Greek letters ;-) ). I can
understand or estimate sometimes what a piece of code should do, but not
altogether.
E.g. \starttypescript uses various number of args - I can see
\starttypescript [fallback] as well as
\starttypescript [serif]
[modern,latin-modern,computer-modern,default] and
\starttypescript [serif] [modern,latin-modern,computer-modern,default]
[name],
sometimes coupled with default (keyword?) or name (placeholder?).
- So this all doesn't bring much light to my effort.

To get back to my problem:
The default Ctx bodyfont (CMR) is all right for me, I don't need to change it
(but it's possible, if it should simplify something).
I just need to redefine font(s) to be used for math and boldmath and which would allow to use Greek
normal and bold chars. (I hope I understand well that boldmath is a bit special problem
that requires nonstandard approach).
It's no problem to use any switch inside the math mode which would typeset bold
letters (including Greek ones) - it may be \bf, \bfm, \msym, \mathsym, \sy ...
- whatever.
It's also necessary NOT to type bold chars as special unicode symbols.
If I understand well, the default Ctx font - CMR - is used for typesetting
[bold]math as well. But the problem is that it fails when typesetting bold
Greek letters.
So that's why I'm thinking about AMS font(s), which should be contain normal
and bold letters, including Greek ones, symbols...
So the question is - how to get AMS fonts work in the Ctx document - or maybe:
how to replace the default math font by that of AMS.
What code - \typescript, \define???font??? - to use?
Just to make the code $Abc \alpha = {\aSwitchToBoldMath Abc \alpha} = or
\aCommandToTypeBoldMath{Abc \alpha}$ work.
NB: I'm still beginner with Ctx. I used to typeset [bold]math in LaTeX and some
things are done another way there --
Thank again for your patience.
