Re: [NTG-context] How to define a new font style using \definefontstyle?

I'm not sure I understand. Myriad Pro has normal and semi-extended versions. Do you suggest to have different typefaces for normal and semi-extended version ? (Which makes no sense for roman then). I'd like to use both normal and semi-extended versions, both with their bold, italic, etc. styles. That why I would have like to create a new font-style.

No one? Is there a documentation somewhere or an example I could refer to?

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I'm trying to declare a new font style. I declare it with \definefontstyle [sx] [sx] but the compilation fails when I use \sx in my document.

easier:

\starttypescript [sans] [myriadpro] % \definefontsynonym [SansSemiExtended] [file:MyriadPro-SemiExt.otf][f eatures=default] \definefontsynonym [Sans] [name:dejavusans] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansBold] [name:dejavusansbold] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [name:dejavusansitalic] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [name:dejavusansbolditalic][fe atures=default] \stoptypescript

\definetypeface [source] [ss] [sans] [myriadpro] \definetypeface [source] [mm] [math] [modern]

\setupbodyfont[pagella]

\starttext

{\source\ss ABCDEFGHIJKLM\par NOPQRSTUVWXYZ\par abcdefghijklm\par nopqrstuvwxyz\par 1234567890}

\stoptext

I found an older message from 2009 similar to my issue but with

public solution. May be some private response from Hans Hagen is missing? (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2009/043067.html https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2009/043067.html)

Here is a minimal example:

\definefontstyle [sx] [sx] \definetypeface [source] [sx] [semiextended] [myriadpro] [optical]

\starttypescript [semiextended] [optical] [size] \definebodyfont [11pt] [sx] [tf=SansSemiExtended sa 1] \stoptypescript

\starttypescript [semiextended] [myriadpro] \definefontsynonym [SansSemiExtended] [file:MyriadPro-SemiExt.otf] [features=default] \stoptypescript

\starttext

{\sx ABCDEFGHIJKLM\par NOPQRSTUVWXYZ\par abcdefghijklm\par nopqrstuvwxyz\par 1234567890}

\stoptext

Thanks for your help,

Antoine C.
