Hi Pablo !
Thank you for your reply. It doesn't work, yet : the compilation stops without producing any log file.
For the moment I have two goals : writing this course with a correct and beautiful PDF print and structuring 360 pages with 23 chapters (with greek aristotelian quotations). I am just trying to face the first goal !
I send you privately a sample of what I am trying to do.

Dear ConTeXt wizards,
I am currently writing a course. I need some notes in the left margin. I have written this in the preamble :
\setuppapersize[A4] \setuplanguage[fr] \setuplayout [backspace=40mm] \setuppagenumbering[location={header,inright}] \setupmargindata[inmargin][location=left] \setupmargindata[inmargin][style={\switchtobodyfont[ss,10pt]}] \setupbodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [serif] [New Athena Unicode] [preset=range:greek]% for some words in greek \definefontfamily [mainface] [serif] [GFS Didot] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \setupindenting[1.5em] \setupindenting[yes] \setupframedtexts[][left,10pt] \starttext
A problem occurs : while some words are well printed in italics in the body text (and in footnotes), this is not the case in the left margin with this code : \inmargin[][align=middle]{Cf. Platon, {\em Timée}, 29b.}
Hi Jean-Pierre, you have to define a sans font after the serif font, such as in: \definefontfamily [mainface] [sans] [GFS Neohellenic] BTW, latest beta versions require force=yes in \definefallbackfamily. Just out of curiosity, do you plan to post the resulting PDF file online? I hope it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
