Hello dear Mojca, Let me mention one thing, while it is not too late ) I use not Termes, but standard Window Times New Roman. And I'd prefer italic latin letters to be taken from it, not from Termes. My working typescript: \starttypescript [serif] [TimesNR] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [times.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [timesbd.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [timesbi.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [timesi.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted] [timesi.ttf] [features=default] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [math][TimesNR][all] \definefontsynonym[MathRoman][txmath@tx-math] \loadmapfile[original-youngryu-tx.map] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [TimesNR] \definetypeface [TimesNR] [rm] [serif] [TimesNR] [default] \definetypeface [TimesNR] [mm] [math] [TimesNR] [default] \stoptypescript \setupmathematics[lcgreek=normal, ucgreek=normal] \usetypescript[TimesNR] \setupbodyfontenvironment [11pt] [x=10pt] \setupbodyfont[TimesNR, 11pt]

That's why I mentioned that it might be nice to have "italic" and "roman" as names in math typescripts (math-vfu.lua) for exactly such cases. Mojca

Yes, I see..

"lc" stands for lowercase and "uc" for uppercase. Best wishes, Vyatcheslav

local footnote (Tables) problem
by Bowen Alan C. 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

I am having a problem placing local footnotes in a table using\placelegend. The attached file will compile only if I comment out (a) header=2pc in \setuplayout or (b) \setupbodyfont[lmodern,rm,10.5pt] or (c) \placelegend or (d) \dorecurse{3}{\input knuth} I am stumped as to why this should be so. There is obviously something that I am just not seeing. I am running MK2 using the latest beta in the ConTeXt Minimals. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Alan

Hello, I could miss the point, but if the problem is in the map file (original-youngryu-tx.map), we can contact its creator: http://www.utdallas.edu/~ryoung/ Or it is mkiv core files that need to be fixed? And as a suggestion: it would be very handy to have a command like \setupmathematics[lcroman=italic, ucroman=italic] Regards, Vyatcheslav

Define tex macro on the context command line
by John Devereux 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

Hi, Is it possible to define a tex macro on the context command line (MkII)? For example: texexec manual.tex --define Title "X99 Operators Manual" so that \Title would expand to the appropriate text? (I know about modes I think) -- John Devereux

gtamac symbols and mkiv
by Jörg Hagmann 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

I have been using symbols (such as "Fleuron") from the gtamacfonts in an annual publication. Trying to change to mkiv: what exactly should I do to install them? So far, my attempts were not successful. (Attempts meaning: copying the tt fonts and the type- and other files that seem to have anything to do with it into my minimal installation, reloading the fonts and remaking the formats). Thanks, Jörg

Oh, sorry about my previous post with font test snippet. Instead, I have a problem with upright Latin letters: I need them to be italicized. Vyatcheslav

Hi, This snippet from Wolfgang proves that txmia.tfm does contain upright greek letters! What can I hack to obtain them? Maybe modify original-youngryu-tx.map? Regards, Vyatcheslav \loadmapfile[original-youngryu-tx.map] \font\test=txmia.tfm \dorecurse{255}{\recurselevel: {\test\char\recurselevel}\par} \bye
