Hi Hans, all,
the two latest betas have trouble loading fonts from my own typescripts. All errors point to the same line in font-syn.lua. I don't have a minimal example yet, but here's a minimal command line that triggers the error on my box:
mtxrun --script fonts --list --pattern="*gentium*" ....text/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/font-syn.lua:706: bad argument #1 to 'next' (table expected, got nil)
Any pointers?
i'll add a safeguard once you get it working you may also try: mtxrun --script fonts --list --spec gentium ok, gentium is a bad example but some fonts report weight, style and width info (given that we have a sane font) you can in context now use \definefont[ThomasFavourite][spec:somename-bold-italic] \definefont[ThomasFavourite][spec:somename-bold] \definefont[ThomasFavourite][spec:somename-italic] \definefont[ThomasFavourite][spec:somename-bold-italic-condensed] etc. kind of experimental, as everything mkiv (and not to be confused with the simple fonts alternative) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
