Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt mkiv and rsfs fonts

Hi Mikael, Thanks for your quick answer! Actually I used probably an inappropriate word when speaking about readability of the standard \cal in LM. Indeed they are readable, but for the particular case of ${\cal D}$, or ${\cal U}$ or ${\cal S}$, they do not correspond to the corresponding shape one finds in classical books of Analysis. On the other hand it does not contain lower case letters. In any case your solution below gives me exactly what I was looking for: %%%% begin example \definefallbackfamily[mainface][math][Asana Math][range={1D49C-1D4CF,212C,2130,2131,210B,2110,2112,2133,211B,212F,210A,2134}] \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [palatino] % or % \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Latin Modern] \definefontfamily [mainface] [math] [Latin Modern Math] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext ${\cal ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$ ${\cal abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz}$ The space of distributions on $\Omega$ is denoted by ${\cal D}'(\Omega)$, while ${\cal S}({\Bbb R}^n)$ is the space of Schwartz functions, and ${\cal S}'({\Bbb R}^n)$ is its dual. \stoptext %%%% end example Since other people may benefit from it, I would like to update the wiki on the matter. But actually I do not understand what does the « range » mean in the example [range={1D49C-1D4CF,212C,2130,2131,210B,2110,2112,2133,211B,212F,210A,2134}] Could you please give a brief explanation so that I don’t write nonsense on the wiki?

Thanks for the answer. Is there another script font for LM, or for Palatino, which looks a little bit more readable than \cal in those fonts, and which can be used with the simplefonts mechanism?

Best regards: OK

Personally, I think that the \cal from Latin Modern is very readable (thus, I don't know what you are after). I tried some others, maybe you like one of them (I hope that the line breaks in the email will be OK):

\definefallbackfamily[mainface][math][TeX Gyre Termes Math][range={1D49C-1D4CF,212C,2130,2131,210B,2110,2112,2133,211B,212F,210A,2134}] %\definefallbackfamily[mainface][math][TeX Gyre Pagella Math][range={1D49C-1D4CF,212C,2130,2131,210B,2110,2112,2133,211B,212F,210A,2134}] %\definefallbackfamily[mainface][math][Asana Math][range={1D49C-1D4CF,212C,2130,2131,210B,2110,2112,2133,211B,212F,210A,2134}] \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Latin Modern] \definefontfamily [mainface] [math] [Latin Modern Math]

\setupbodyfont[mainface]

\starttext ${\cal abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$ \stoptext
