I am confused. I do not have open type version of charter. I thought that it was still possible to use traditional type 1 fonts with mkiv.

should work, but for the moment wait till luatex is fixed for indexing such fonts btw, mkiv will not use the tfm files but the afm files

So, how do I use the free bitstream charter that ships with tex distributions? I am using the context standalone distribution and have afm version of charter (bchb8a.afm, bchbi8a.afm, bchr8a.afm, bhcri8a.afm) and the pfb versions of the same fonts. I do not have otf version of charter.

well, in principle we no longer have font encodings, when the afm file is found, it will be used and > 256 chars are possible then ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
