Else you need to ask on the XeTeX mailing list. (But indeed: why not trying out LuaTeX?)
I'm too lazy to recompile my binaries all the time; my old Mac is rather slow...
That's why the "minimal distribution" (minimals.contextgarden.net) has been created. A single command should update everything.
Tomorrow I'll try to use an additional PostScript font - is that even possible? Otherwise I must convert it to OpenType.
It is, but which OS and what kind of PostScript font are you using? Mac type of PostScript fonts doesn't work (or better: it only works with xdv2pdf, which isn't supported in ConTeXt any more). You can use the "windows type" Type1 fonts (i.e. just the normal .pfb files). That should work on any system, but on Mac you need to reference it by filename. Font name won't work.
Ok, thanks. I guess I could have found out on my own, but was too tired yesterday... I knew that resource fork fonts don't work.
Conditionally they do, but there are too many problems - it really doesn't pay out to try to use them.
But I installed all necessary fonts for pdfTeX anyway. Lots of them, back in 2004/2005, see my typescripts collection: http://www.fiee.net/texnique/?menu=0-1-4&lang=en
Those should work, I guess. Not when called by name, but calling them by filename should be no problem.
BTW: I'd love to come to the gathering in Slovenija, but I must typeset my main project (a monthly city magazine) at that time.
But that's a remote job, right? ;-) (We will have internet connection there :) Besides that - BachoTeX might be interesting to visit as well. Mojca
