I believe, it is possible to use in Conext the otf-fonts I have in my computer. I generated the database, the quert shows me, that the font is there, but I can not get it in my file. And when I read the chapter in the Manual or whatever I can find, I read a lot about Typescripts and unterstand absolutely nothing. I find how to make a typescript for palatino, which makes no difference, but I don’t unterstand why I shall make a typescript and how.
Is there a text which tells step by step what I have to so and why? Now the situation is: I have a lot of Fonts and can use just four. That was much easier with LaTeX…
The context suite provides the \definefontfamily command which let you select a font (the name of the font goes into the third argument) without the need to write a typescript. Below is a example where I used fonts from my ms office installation. \definefontfamily [myfontcollection] [serif] [Cambria] \definefontfamily [myfontcollection] [sans] [Calibri] \definefontfamily [myfontcollection] [mono] [Consolas] \definefontfamily [myfontcollection] [math] [Cambria Math] \setupbodyfont[myfontcollection] \starttext {\rm\input ward } {\ss\input ward } {\tt\input ward } \startformula c^2 = a^2 + b^2 \stopformula \stoptext Wolfgang
