Hi Rory,
Hi Taco, Thanks for responding.
Because there is no fallback font defined either, you get 'nothing' when you switch to \ss in the older contexts. You could attempt to update your context installation, but this could introduce new problems, so it may be easiest to add a \definetypeface line
I've already updated my installation, which cleared up the problem. Is it risky in general to use 'ctxtool --updatecontext'?
for palatino ss in your document someplace before the \setupbodyfont.
\definetypeface [palatino] [ss] [sans] [modern] [default] [encoding=ec,rscale=1.075]
Oh, I see. This uses the Computer Modern sans. So if I understand things correctly, the various arguments are: [palatino]: the typeface being defined (or modified in this case) [ss]: the part of the typeface being defined (the \ss name) [sans]: refers to a part of the "modern" typeface [modern]: pick the "sans" part of the this typeface [default]: what's this bit? [encoding]: the encoding to use [rscale]: a scaling adjustment to make up for CM's smaller x-size. Is that the general idea? Cheers, Rory
