Re: [NTG-context] how to choose a font variant "book" / LMTX

'both' would be the way to go, how can I set this up? I don’t use typescripts just the definefontfamily and I suppose the book variant belongs to the family but is maybe an unloved relative ...

Do I understand correctly that you want the "Book" variant as regular? Or do you need both?

Have a look into typescripts, e.g. https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Alegreya_Typescript You probably won’t need the features.

Hi there I have a quick question: I was successful to install and use a new font in LMTX (New Computer Modern). All good except that I’d like to use the »Book« variant instead of the »Regular« variant (NewCM10-Book.otf vs NewCM10-Regular.otf). Trying many ways but the right one. please advise, can I define something similar like \bf for bold — maybe \bk for book? … all I get is hp@mbp16 ~ % pdffonts page1.pdf name type encoding emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ----------------- ---------------- --- --- --- --------- CRBMBE+NewCM10-Regular CID Type 0C Identity-H yes yes yes 1 0 my definitions are: \definefontfamily [newCM] [rm] [newcomputermodern10] \definefontfamily [newCM] [ss] [newcomputermodernsans10] \definefontfamily [newCM] [tt] [newcomputermodernmono10] [scale=0.85, features=none] \definefontfamily [newCM] [mm] [newcomputermodernmath] \setupbodyfont[newCM, rm, 10pt] Many thanks Heinrich
