looks quite nice, i also like the font size
Thanks. What about getting these fonts to work in mkiv? Must
there be
some change in the fonts? Some files in ConTeXt? (they were
perfectly
working in older mkii)
Fourier and Uptopia should work with mkiv. I will check why they are
not
working at present.
Utopia use "encoding-filename" and MkIV needs the "filename" to load
the fonts.
Here is a complete typescript for utopia (without fake slanted and
caps style).
\starttypescript [serif] [utopia]
   \setups[font:fallback:serif]
   \definefontsynonym [Serif]           [Utopia-Regular]
   \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]     [Utopia-Italic]
   \definefontsynonym [SerifBold]       [Utopia-Bold]
   \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [Utopia-BoldItalic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [serif] [utopia]
   \definefontsynonym [Utopia-Regular]    [file:putr8a]
[features=default]
   \definefontsynonym [Utopia-Italic]     [file:putri8a]
[features=default]
   \definefontsynonym [Utopia-Bold]       [file:putb8a]
[features=default]
   \definefontsynonym [Utopia-BoldItalic] [file:putbi8a]
[features=default]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [utopia]
   \definetypeface [\typescriptone] [rm] [serif] [utopia] [default]
\stoptypescript
\endinput

Thank you Wolfgang, but this does not work for me with latest
minimals. (I have downloaded utopia(+fourier) and they show up in
mkii.) I put your lines in a file and add
\setupbodyfont[utopia][ec/8r/...] %tried several and also without
this last []
\starttext
test
\stoptext
LuaTeX just compiles and replaces these fonts by lm.
luatools putr8a.pfb gives the resulting location of the pfb file so it
actually finds the font.
Do I misuse it?
Try my test file (I saved the typescript above in type-utopia.tex).
\usetypescriptfile[type-utopia]
\usetypescript[utopia]
\setupbodyfont[utopia]
\starttext
\tf ABC abc 123 \par
\it ABC abc 123 \par
\bf ABC abc 123 \par
\bi ABC abc 123 \par
\stoptext

Mojca did send me a list with the necessary files for fourier+utopia.
I put them in

http://www.math.chalmers.se/~mickep/fourierandutopia.zip

if someone wants to test. I also attach a small (I guess noncomplete)
typescript file type-myfourier.tex (the myfourier not to clash with
something previously defined) and a file ftest.tex which indeed gives
the fourier fonts, but with the error as in
http://www.math.chalmers.se/~mickep/ftest.pdf mentioned in a previous
mail.

I guess this is not the correct way to write typescripts for these
fonts in mkiv, but I dont know how to :(

Best regards, Mikael

PS: Thank you Mojca for giving this list of files and also explain
which of the otf/ttf/type1 files that needs typescripts.
