Hi all,
I just discovered that the windows pcs in the library have certain adobe stuff installed that comes with a neat collection of adobe fonts. So I thought I’d want to use them in context and prepared a minimals for windows on a usb stick using wine. I haven’t used windows in ages so I’d like to ask some questions before I actually start testing.
1. Why is there an mtxrun.exe binary in addition to the lua script?
because texlua has to be run
2. How large will texmf-cache grow when all the fonts from an indesign installation are indexed (it’s a small stick and context resides next to a linux on it)?
indexing is not that much an issue as only partial data is stored usage will create tma/tmc files (reminds me that I need to add a configuration option to clear the tma files as they are only there for tracing purposes)
3. Anything I should be aware of where windows context behaves differently from linux?
