Hello, I think I´mgetting confused with all of the font selection within context. First: I have a miktex environment on on W2K. 1. to change single fonts: \definetypeface [palatino] [rm] [serif] [palatino] [default] [encoding=ec] \switchtotypeface[palatino][12pt,rm] results in an error that the font is not found (font: uplr8t) on my system following files are available: uplr8a.afm uplr8v.tfm uplr8v.pfb uplr8a.pfb uplr8v.htf but I think tfm is needed 2. I thought that the default encoding should be texnansi I tried that but context is looking for texnansi-uhvr8a (here for helvet). The font uhvr8a is on my system. 3. should be there some font-switching macros on the system called font-xxx.tex (example font-lbr.tex)? These are missing on my system. I think these are needed forthings like: \setupbodyfont[lbr, sans, 12pt] 4. within miktex there are "lucida" font files from yandy (lbr.tfm ). Is that a free version of lucida-font? (is that for math? [there is anotherfile called math-lbt.tex in \context\base]) Summary: do I need to get the missing fonts/files and why are they not provided with miktex. Perhaps a change of the distribution is to prefer? (which one) Is there a manual which explains how to change fonts (in a way that a normal user who is new to context can understand it)? Thanks a lot Wolfgang
