Hi, Hans Hagen wrote:
i remember that when a while ago taco and i discussed this that there were some good reasons for not yet having access to all this specific info i.e. i can imagine that tex.somefontcs returns the number but quite some of those accessors have to wait till the whole global/local issue of the code is resolved.
also, we're not close to 0.50 so it's unlikely that new accessors will
not -> now
show up before that stable version is out
But actually, it is possible to get the id for a font: \directlua {local id = token.create("tenrm")[2]} This does not (currently) work when you ask for the recent \font and that font has never been selected yet as 'currently active' font (token.create() will return zero in [2] in that case, for the \nullfont), but it works for all other fonts. Best wishes, Taco
