Hi, Graphic designers describe in this way the font-size and linespacing. So one can do things like this: \definedfont[Baskerville at 11pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=12.5pt]... Willi On 16 Mar 2011, at 13:50, Charles Doherty wrote:
Dear all,
In light of the question on fonts I have wondered how ConTeXt deals with this
Monotype Baskerville 11/12.5 pt
or
Monotype 11 on 12 point Bembo
that I see at the beginning of books.
Are there commands to achieve this. There probably are but I haven't recognised them.
Thanks, Charlie

Cecil, thanks for asking this question. Even though the answers may/will be subjective, it is quite likely that there are people here who have given some thought to font choice. I agree with previous responses that reading a book on typography would certainly be helpful. Nevertheless, I am interested in hearing what fonts people like (if they do not mind sharing). I, and perhaps some others, may learn about a few fonts.
