AFAIK they are the command to switch from one style to another one, e.g. \rm, \ss but I wondered myself about this. not really, since we also have hw (handwritten) and cg (calligraphy)
I know rm, ss, tt, mm, hw and cg but you write in the font manual it is also possible to define own commands, is this possible for the short command and if yes how.
anyhow, sometimes i do map the ss to a serif or rm to sans; depends on how mixed your doc may be
Do you mean I could write \definetype [...] [rm] [sans] to get a sans font with the \rm command.
indeed rm ss etc are defined infont-ini and you can define more if needed Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
