Hello all. I hope this is quite a simple question.
But I really need to be able to do the equivalent of \definedfont[Bold at 48pt]. Unfortunately this doesn't work - it produces normal text size and weight.
I have absolutely no experience and/or knowledge about Chinese and its typesetting, but perhaps something like \definedfont[SimplifiedChineseBold at 48pt] could work?
Unfortunately it isn't easy to post an example, because you need UTF-8 content, and you need the fonts set up for Chinese (which I believe ConTeXt Live doesn't currently have). So I'm hoping that someone familiar with the workings of font-chi.tex can tell me how to get specific point sizes of specific fonts. Is there a unicode font equivalent of \definedfont? Or a way of adding an e and f size definition to the default set?
Btw: Is there any reason for not using XeTeX (or LuaTeX in the future) for Chinese? (To be honest: I have absolutely no idea whether it works and how good it works if at all, but I would expect less problems there.) Mojca
