Hi,
my whole project is set in Times without problems - except at one spot there is a "beta" needed. Just this single time!
But, unfortunately, I only get it italic:
\starttext
\usetypescript[postscript][\defaultencoding] \setupencoding[default=texnansi] \enableregime[utf] \setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt] \setupinterlinespace[line=12pt]
$\beta$
β% same in unicode
\stoptext
For it is just this one character, used one single time, I don't feel encouraged to start messing around with typescripts.
Someone can give me a quick(-and-dirty) advice??
The advice would be: find a font with a suitable character and use something like that: \loadmapfile[iwona-greek] \font\iw="greek-iwonar"\iw \char226 The problem is that TeX Gyre fonts do not (yet) ship with greek tfm files unless I'm mistaken (you can still make tfm file yourself), but there certainly must be some other suitable font. Another dirty option: % engine=luatex \usetypescript[postscript] \setupbodyfont[postscript] \starttext \startTEXpage β \stopTEXpage \stoptext and then \includegraphics[beta]. (You probably need to lower the box as well.) Mojca
