issue with OT feature in LMTX
by Pablo Rodriguez 05 Dec '22

05 Dec '22

Dear list, I have the following sample (using current latest from 2022.12.01 13:05): \definefallbackfamily[mainface][rm][Noto Emoji] [range={0x1F004-0xFE837}, force=yes] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Pagella] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \definestructureconversionset [sectionnumbers] [0,n,Characters,g,n] [n] \definefontfeature[section] [smcp=yes, c2sc=yes] \setupheads[sectionconversionset=sectionnumbers] \setuphead[section][style={\feature[+][section]}] \starttext \section{Just text} {\feature[+][section]Just text} \stoptext LMTX outputs no small caps and it fallbacks to Noto Emoji. LuaTeX gives the right output. Am I missing something or have I hit a bug in LMTX? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

accessing ital axis in variable font
by Pablo Rodriguez 03 Dec '22

03 Dec '22

Dear list, using the Literata variable fonts from https://github.com/googlefonts/literata/tree/main/fonts/variable, I have the following source: \definefontfeature[myaxis][axis={weight=500, italic=1}] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Literata][features={default, myaxis}] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \input zapf\par \it\input zapf \stoptext Other axes than weight (and only when not invoked as 'wght') don’t work for me (using latest from 2022.12.01 13:05). I have used the following source (it seems to be a goodie from current latest): \usemodule[fonts-variable] \starttext \showfontvariations[font=file:literata-italic.ttf] \showfontvariations[font=file:literata.ttf] \stoptext It reports that the Literata fonts have three (design) axes: wght, opsz and ital. ital is only a design axis. As explained before, they don’t work for me. How can I access to the italic and the optical size axes? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

Can I use \starthangaround?
by peter.hopcroft＠icloud.com 02 Dec '22

\starthangaround is mentioned in these context garden wiki pages: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/CD_Booklet https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Unexpected_behavior When I try to use examples from these pages I get an error that \starthangaround is undefined. It isn’t in any of my context installation files, including cont-new.tex. I'm using LMTX, installed a few days ago. Is it possible for me to use \starthangaround ? Peter Hopcroft

lmtx upload
by Hans Hagen 01 Dec '22

01 Dec '22

Hi, I uploaded lmtx. Most significate: - A slightly different implementaqtion of font modes 'base' and 'none' (hopefully no side effects). - A few math updates (like primes done a bit differently, we made some choices here). - Limited support for colr format 1 as needed for the rather nice: https://gitlab.com/smc/fonts/Nupuram/-/blob/master/docs/README.md which is used like: \startTEXpage[offset=1dk,align={normal,tolerant,stretch}] \definefontfeature[colored][default][colr=9] \definefontfeature[slanted][default][slant=.2] \definedfont[name:nupuramregular*default] \input tufte \par \blank \definedfont[name:nupuramregular*slanted] \input tufte \par \blank % \definedfont[Nupuram-Color.colrv0.otf*colored] \input tufte \par \blank \definedfont[Nupuram-Color.colrv1.otf*colored] \input tufte \par \blank \definedfont[Nupuram-Dots.otf*default] \input tufte \par \blank \definedfont[Nupuram-Arrows-Color.colrv0*,colored] \input tufte \par \stopTEXpage (don't install variable fonts and instances alongside) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
