Re: [NTG-context] Basic font question (Optima, but no bold, no italics). Standalone ConTeXt does not work. TeX Live 2019 works

With Arial: \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Arial] \setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt] with Optima: \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Optima] \setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt] It doesn’t matter if the font statements are before or after \starttext Then I thought, let’s test some other things. I logged in as another user, and used ConTeXt from TeX Live 2019: It seems to be that on my system, the standalone installed ConTeXt does not work with Optima, but the TeX Live installed one does. G

It's noticed that Optima is a Sans Serif font. Maybe it conflicts with MacOS way to handle fonts.

No, ConTeXt doesn’t care what kind of font you define as rm/ss/tt, and the OS has no say in that.

Best, Hraban
