the fontutil can be download from http://learn.tsinghua.edu.cn/homepage/015450/prog.html there are windows/linux/solaris version and the name is gbkfonts now. I think you can read this chinese web page.
Thank you very much, this solved the initial problem. (I'm not able to read Chinese but Babelfish helped me understand what everything meant.)
there are a simple setup for chinese in context here: http://bbs.ctex.org/cgi-bin/topic.cgi?forum=8&topic=28&show=90 also a chinese page.
Again very useful, thank you very much. I now have reached the following stage:
I have the htsong.ttf TrueType font, a set of .tfm files generated from it, and a set of .enc files to tie them together. I have added them all to my texmf tree, along with the various recommended edits to the context/base files, the .map files and so on. I ran texec --make and texhash without any problem.
When I texexec a very small sample ConTeXt seems to be looking for a different naming scheme for the files. I have generated a set of files called
gbsong01.tfm gbsong02.tfm ... gbsong94.tfm gbsongsl01.tfm ... gbsongsl94.tfm
but ConTeXt seems to rely on them being called
gbsong81.tfm ... gbsongfe.tfm
and suchlike. I get lots of errors saying that the tfm files can't be found, and then it starts trying to generate fonts using metafont, which is never going to work...
Do I have to rename these files, or is there somewhere that I can edit to change this dependency, or is my guess wrong and I actually have a different problem?
Thanks very much. I have never used a TTF directly with pdftex before, I hope it will work.
