Expert fonts have been mentioned on this list several times, but I'd like to know if anybody could point me to e tutorial/example how to make them work in Context. The background of my question: on my Mac, I have a nice-looking truetype font "HoeflerText" which has most glyphs of an expert font (oldstyle numbers, small caps, additional ligatures etc.), and I wonder if it would be possible to split it up into several type 1 fonts (via pfaedit) and make them work like an expert family. Any suggestions about this? Thanks! Thomas
I don't recommend converting to type 1. Better to just use ttf2tex with its expert switch. That'll get you access to all the standard expert glyphs, though you'd need to write the typescripts. It'd be nice to see someone extend ttf2tex to do this too though (it already creates all the files for LaTeX). Bruce
