[NTG-context] Re: Fwd: Re: x mark symbol and general symbol guide

Hi, I have to come back to that topic, since it seems not to work. The said source code produces just the text "times" and "check" for me (see 1.pdf). I also tried: ``` \usesymbols[fontawesome] \starttext \showsymbolset[fontawesome-solid] \stoptext ``` and get a list of symbols that do not belong to fontawesome (see 2.pdf). I also tried to find the symbol file directly in the context distribution and found: tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/symb-imp-fontawesome.mkiv However, most parts are commented out there, one of the few remaining symbols is wheelchair. However, when using that, I just got the string _378 (3.pdf). Source code: ``` \usesymbols[fontawesome] \startTEXpage[offset=1pt] \symbol[fontawesome][wheelchair] \stopTEXpage ``` Is there a problem with my installation? Additional output: ``` % mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern='fontawesome' identifier familyname fontname filename subfont instances fontawesome fontawesome fontawesome FontAwesome.otf fontawesome6brands fontawesome6brands fontawesome6brandsregular /usr/share/fonts/fontawesome/Font Awesome 6 Brands-Regular-400.otf fontawesome6brandsnormal fontawesome6brands fontawesome6brandsregular /usr/share/fonts/fontawesome/Font Awesome 6 Brands-Regular-400.otf fontawesome6freenormal fontawesome6free fontawesome6freesolid /usr/share/fonts/fontawesome/Font Awesome 6 Free-Solid-900.otf fontawesomenormal fontawesome fontawesome FontAwesome.otf fontawesomeregular fontawesome fontawesome FontAwesome.otf ``` Best, Gerion Am Montag, 16.

Hi,

I recently tried to typeset a table with checkmarks and x marks. \checkmark exists but is there a predefined x mark symbol (\xmark does not work)?

In general: For LaTeX there exists the very helpful comprehensive LaTeX symbol list [1]. Is there a similar documentation for ConTeXt somewhere? \usesymbols[fontawesome]

\startTEXpage[offset=1ts] \symbol[fontawesome-solid][times]\quad \symbol[fontawesome-solid][check] \stopTEXpage

you can run symb-imp-fontawesome and get a list

Hans
