Hi Luigi,
As I said, this example does not produce a PDF file for me. I will attach the output.
Undefined control sequence ... ...and it points to \showfontkerns
In previous attempts to load a font file directly, I used a command structures something like [file:FreeSerif.otf*default], but these never worked for me either, and you seem to be using some other method. How should one load the file for this example?
You didn't answer the question: to investigate this behaviour, must I install a second, newer version of context, or can I use the disro version? What is the reason for installing the latest version of ConTeXt? Is this \showfontkerns only in versions newer than 2012.05.30 11:26 MKIV ?
This \showfontkerns may be interesting to me, generally. (So I have a further incentive to get this going!)
1) install a new version ,as I said in my prev. email under "Quick how-to" 2) save this %% test.tex \usemodule[simplefonts][size=25pt] \definefontfeature[latins][default][script=latn] \setmainfont[FreeSerif] \starttext \showfontkerns dadedidodufafefifofufrflftlalelilolutatetitotu\par \addfs{latins} dadedidodufafefifofufrflftlalelilolutatetitotu\par \stoptext into test.tex, and then see the last lines of "Quick how-to" there are many other details to discover -- luigi
