For some fonts you would also need a custom mapping because not all fonts

Re: [NTG-context] kpfonts, math, type 1 font
As for the first point: buggy afm files, I've tried generate font
from fontforge interface:
Even though I've let fontforge proceed to many auto-corrections, the
output produced
and then installed seems not to fit the bill: nothing is showing.
I reckon I've learned as much as can be done in one go:
= I temporarily give up.
Nevertheless if one have information about the vector I wrote for bold Greek:
why that didn't work, I'll will gladly have it.

I tried the example of Problem to install Garamond font with mathdesign.
It for me, save I encounter exactly the same problems as those I've
described for KPfonts, using, in fact, mathdesign as template.
(Note: it's pure ConTEXt-standalone: I do not have these fonts in my
TeX-Live tree. Though I do have these fonts, installed manually, from
ctan, in my local ${HOME}/texmf/fonts/ tree.)
% file: test.tex
\loadtypescriptfile[mathdesign]
\starttext
$\Gamma\Gamma\bf\Gamma$
\setupbodyfont[garamond]
$\Gamma\Gamma\bf\Gamma$
\stoptext
(Gammas are squeezed together and \bf is ineffective, which is not so
with modern).
If the assumption that mdugmr7m.tfm contains the metrics for
md-gmm7m.pfb is correct, then fontforge show it (mdugmr7m), contains

Again, I might be misunderstanding.

indeed you have to make such a table for any math font combination you
want (when using type 1 fonts)
In this example, I believe the files involved are tfm files
(ugmr8a.tfm, mdugmr7m.vf, in
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/all/texlive-fonts-extra/filelist)
Note: the afm files of kpfonts are ziped in the doc directory.
And I've got vf files, 688 of them.
normally you don't need more files than the ones you mention in the
table; best prevent too much polution of your tree by tfm/vf files
(if you know exactly what you need you can make a path fonts/data/xxx/
and put all relevant files there so that you keep the overview)

Thanks, I'll experiment in that direction and say when there are results.
The files like tfm, afm, pfb,... seem to be found alright by mtxrun
--script fonts --reload when they are in the ${HOME}/texmf/fonts/
tree, so I think I can leave them there.
So I should make a sort of copy of mdugm-math.lgf and call it
kpfonts-math.lgf, and put it in
${HOME}/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/fonts/.
[Do the same with a copy of type-imp-mathdesign.mkiv, which
contains: \loadfontgoodies[mdugm-math].] Or rather put a typescript
in my document file as explained here:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Math_fonts, and insert some
\loadfontgoodies[kpfonts-math] in it.
Execute: context --make en. And that should be it.
What is the \s! syntax for, as in \s!Serif?

Yes but the tfm and vf files are only needed for the math fonts.

Commands starting with \s! are used for language independent strings
to save memory, e.g. “\s!Serif” is for TeX only a single token while “Serif”
are 5 tokens. There exist more prefixes (e.g. \c! and \v!) but they are
only important for developers.

Hi everybody,
(best wishes for this new year by the way).
There is this font:
http://www.ctan.org/pkg/kpfonts
Which is a postscript type 1 font, text and math.
I've copied the files in the right places in the ${HOME}/texmf tree.
And a call to:
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=*kp*, after a
mtxrun --script fonts --reload
seems to indicate that it is found by context all right.
But now I haven't got the faintest idea on how to use it in a ConTEXt
document -- text + math.
My ConTEXt is beta not older than a fortnight.
All examples I've found that could possibly apply were at least far
too complicate for my understanding, also likely outdated.
Using a text font in type1-format is very easy, all you need is the afm and the
pfb-file.
The font files are put in the tex folder and to use them in your document you
have to write a short typescript, below is a example how to use the urn
garamond font.
\starttypescript [serif] [charter]
\setups[font:fallback:serif]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:ugmr8a.afm] [features=complete]
\stoptypescript
\definetypeface [mainface] [rm] [serif] [charter] [default]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext
The same has to be done for the kpfont but there is one problem, the archive on
cyan doesn’t provide afm-files and you have to generate them yourself. Since
the font provides only tfm-files it would be also possible to them but it’s
better to work with afm-files.
Adding support for the math font requires more work because you have to write
also a Lua file where you specify which file is used for symbols, operator,
letters etc. This isn’t very complicated (you can just modify the files for
palatino or garamond math), you have to only look which files are used for the
math fonts.

Re: [NTG-context] kpfonts, math, type 1 font
Thanks for the quick answer.
I'm not completely sure about the lua files for math support that I
should use as template.
The Palatino one I haven't found;
The Garamond-math one might be that: mdugm-math.lfg:
return {
name = mdugm-math,
version = 1.00,
comment = Math fonts that complement URW Garamond.,
author = Hans, Mojca, Aditya,
copyright = ConTeXt development team,
mathematics = {
mapfiles = {
mdugm.map,
mkiv-base.map,
},
virtuals = {
[mdugm-rm] = {
{ name = file:ugmr8a, features = virtualmath, main = true },
{ name = mdugmr7m, vector = tex-mr, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmri7m, vector = tex-mi, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmri7m, vector = tex-it, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmm7m, vector = tex-bf, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmmi7m, vector = tex-bi, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmr7y, vector = tex-sy,
skewchar=0x30, parameters = true },
{ name = mdugmr7v, vector = tex-ex, extension = true },
{ name = mdugmrma, vector = tex-ma },
{ name = mdugmrmb, vector = tex-mb },
},
[mdugm-bf] = {
{ name = file:ugmm8a, features = virtualmath, main = true },
{ name = mdugmm7m, vector = tex-mr, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmmi7m, vector = tex-mi, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmmi7m, vector = tex-it, skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = mdugmm7y, vector = tex-sy,
skewchar=0x30, parameters = true },
{ name = mdugmm7v, vector = tex-ex, extension = true },
{ name = mdugmmma, vector = tex-ma },
{ name = mdugmmmb, vector = tex-mb },
}
}
}
}
In this example, I believe the files involved are tfm files
(ugmr8a.tfm, mdugmr7m.vf, in
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/all/texlive-fonts-extra/filelist)
Note: the afm files of kpfonts are ziped in the doc directory.
And I've got vf files, 688 of them.
If you have other examples which I could be sure about, I'd be glad to
have them.
Regards,
Chris

Hi everybody,
(best wishes for this new year by the way).
There is this font:
http://www.ctan.org/pkg/kpfonts
Which is a postscript type 1 font, text and math.
I've copied the files in the right places in the ${HOME}/texmf tree.
And a call to:
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=*kp*, after a
mtxrun --script fonts --reload
seems to indicate that it is found by context all right.
But now I haven't got the faintest idea on how to use it in a ConTEXt
document -- text + math.
My ConTEXt is beta not older than a fortnight.
All examples I've found that could possibly apply were at least far
too complicate for my understanding, also likely outdated.
Using a text font in type1-format is very easy, all you need is the afm and
the pfb-file.
The font files are put in the tex folder and to use them in your document you
have to write a short typescript, below is a example how to use the urn
garamond font.
\starttypescript [serif] [charter]
\setups[font:fallback:serif]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:ugmr8a.afm] [features=complete]
\stoptypescript
\definetypeface [mainface] [rm] [serif] [charter] [default]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext
