Hello,
more "font dummy" questions about using Lucida OT...

Now I can at least get started, and figure out about the Blackletter a bit later
It turns out that I need it rather sooner than later as it is used in my source of inspiration. But I just can't figure out how to use it! (Otherwise this is good news because gothic hand is my least bad calligraphy font, so the handwritten copy of the book might be somewhat representable, although I trust ConTeXt to make the nicely typeset versions.) I know that I've managed to use a Gothic or Fraktur font once upon a time (long, long ago in texexec), but don't have a clue how. The font chapter of the manual mentions macros \goth and \frak, can they be used somehow? I'd call the Lucida Blackletter "Gothic", but I'm not picky... The file is called LucidaBlackletterOT.otf and the font name (I assume) is Lucida Blackletter OT - and there's only a Regular available (which is correct as the Gothic lettering should always stand straight, without any slant). All the other fonts in the family work, I just need to find out how to load the Blackletter for one product in my project. Thanks in advance, Mari
