I am trying to learn more about font switching (read the font manuals but to no avail). The thing I am trying to do is : * For normal text I want to use the Times-Roman font * For math's I want to use a different font, i.e. Computer Modern I think I have to work with typescripts and use combinations of \setupbodyfont but I cannot work out the proper combination. Thanks for any help Regards Wim

This should work: \usetypescript[modern] \usetypescript[times][ec] \definetypeface[MyFace][rm][serif][times][default][encoding=ec] \definetypeface[MyFace][mm][math][modern][default][encoding=ec] \setupbodyfont[MyFace,12pt] There's some interesting stuff on the wiki: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Psnfss HTH Thomas
Hi Wim, You can have a look into the files in the distribution beginning with "type-". Most of the free fonts are already defined in those files.... \usetypescript[times][texnansi] ---> get times, this will result in tx-fonts for math. Otherwise define your own typeface: \starttypescript[myfont][texnansi] \definetypeface[Times-CMR][rm][serif][times][default][encoding=\typescripttwo] \definetypeface[Times-CMR][ss][sans] [helvetica] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo,rscale=0.9] \definetypeface [Times-CMR] [tt] [mono] [modern] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo,rscale=1.05] \definetypeface [Times-CMR] [mm] [math] [modern] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[myfont][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[Times-CMR, rm, 12pt] \starttext This is Times, \fontname\font \blank $$a^2 + b^2 = c^2$$ {\switchtobodyfont[ss,16pt] it works} \stoptext Another source for getting into this is the context wiki: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page Kind regards Willi WN wrote:
