Dear list,
I have a bunch of fonts at some location (../myfonts/) relative to TeX files (for example ../myfonts/myfontA.otf).
What is the best way to access them in MKIV?
The best option might be to specify something equivalent to "export TEXINPUTS=../myfonts", but I don't know what exactly I have to use. (A command like \addtotexinputs or \addtosearchpath[../myfonts].) Alternatively \definefontsynonym[a][file:../myfonts/myfontA.otf] would also be acceptable, though I find it a bit ugly.
Thanks a lot, Mojca On Linux (I'm not sure about Mac OS) or Windows you can use symbolic links or juntions resp. For example, $CONTEXT_MINIMAL_PATH/tex/texmf-fonts/data/myfonts -> $WHATEVER/myfonts
