Hello,
I have a few questions.
1. What is the best way to get a symbol from a font you are not using as your main?
e.g. \definefontsynonym [MySymFont] [file:MySymFont.ttf] \definesymbol[cedis][\getglyphstyled{MySymFont}{\tochar{x:20B5}}] \def\cedis{\symbol[cedis]} or just \def\cedis{{\definedfont[MySymFont*default]\tochar{x:20B5}}}
\definesymbol[cedis][\utfchar{“20B5}] \def\cedis{ \switchtobodyfont[dejavu]\tf\symbol[cedis] }
I have GH\cedis 10.00 in my pocket
Don’t use \switchtobodyfont for a single character. For such cases, a fallback font is probably better. \definefontfallback [symbolfallback] [name:MySymFont] [0x20B5]% can also be a list or range [check=yes,force=no] \definetypeface [MyMainFamily] [rm] [serif] [palatino] [default][fallbacks=symbolfallback] https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definefontfallback
2. I would like a more robust method to create a diagram (ie., a series of input and outputs where you are then required to tell the rule of the mapping). The inputs will be up with the outputs below and a downward pointing arrow between them.
Sorry, can’t help you here. Better don’t mix different subjects in one message. Hraban
