Dear ConTeXt users,
I have found Gentium to be a nice free alternative font for my documents. I was wondering why the Greek symbols don't get used in documents which use Gentium. They sem to use the same cmr fonts for the math parts. Is it expected to work that way, or is there a way to get the Gentium symbols?
You will need to create a gentium math mappings on lines of math-eul, math-fou, etc. Lets say, you call this family sil. By default greek letters are taken from the mi and mr family. The following may work: \definefamilysynonyms [sil] [lcgreek] [tf] % or the appropriate gentium greek font name instead of tf \startmathcollection [sil] \definemathsymbol [alpha] [nothing] [lcgreek] ["08] % Use the greek font location in Gentium. % Add similar settings for other greek letters. Look at % math-tex. \stopmathcollection and then \definetypeface[sil-gentium][mm][math][sil][sil][encoding=\defaultencoding] Hopefully, this will work. Aditya
