Is there a "simple" way to get bold (, |, *, and ) in math? nikolai
I don't know how to get them in the standard cmr fonts, but I have the lucida fonts installed and realised these bold characters as follows:
\definetypeface [mainface] [rm] [serif] [lucida] [default] [encoding=texnansi] \definetypeface [mainface] [tt] [mono] [lucida] [default] [encoding=texnansi] \definetypeface [mainface] [ss] [sans] [lucida] [default] [encoding=texnansi] \definetypeface [mainface] [mm] [math,bfmath] [lucida] [default] [encoding=texnansi] \setupformulas [method=bold] \usetypescript [lucida] [texnansi] \switchtotypeface [lucida] [12pt] \switchtobodyfont[mainface] \usemathcollection[lbr] \setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext ${\bfm ( | * )}$ \stoptext
there is also a magazine about it (see show-mag.pdf at www page) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
