Hello, with bold typewriter font I have more success, but one problem remains: pdf-output. There is the same problem as with bold small caps: kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 72 --mag 1+14/72 --dpi 86 cmbtt10 mktexpk: Mismatched mode ljfzzz and resolution 72; ignoring mode. mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 72 dpi devices. mktexpk: Use a config file, or update me. kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log. This is my test-file: \definebodyfont [12pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt10 at 12pt] \definebodyfont [11pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt10 at 11pt] \definebodyfont [10pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt10] \definebodyfont [9pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt9] \definebodyfont [8pt] [tt] [bf=cmbtt8] \starttext {\tt Normal and \bf bold Typewriter.} \stoptext Could there be support for bold typewriter in the distribution?

looks like some metafont problem; however, forget about those fonts, take a look at latin modern instead: it has narrow tt, light tt and heavy tt (which is what you're looking for) Hans

cmbtt is a metafont-only font. As Hans said: have a look at latin modern. If you really want cmbtt, you can use the pdftex primitive \pdfpkresolution = 600 (for example) to specify a resolution. Cheers, Taco

Hello Taco, thank you, \pdfpkresolution works well! Indeed, there is a dark lm-type-writer font, and with LaTeX, you get it automatically. Test-file: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{lmodern} \begin{document} \texttt{Normal and \textbf{bold Type-Writer}} \end{document} But they are not so bold as the cmbtt ones. Anyway: how could the dark lmtt font be activated in ConTeXt and could this be included in the distribution? And what about bold sc-font? Greetings, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

not automatically, you have to ask for it: \usepackage{lmodern} and i guess that lmodern is not compatible with normal cmodern -)
But they are not so bold as the cmbtt ones. Anyway: how could the dark lmtt font be activated in ConTeXt and could this be included in the distribution?
by default, context loads the cmr fonts with design sizes, nowadays replaced by their latin modern alternative in order to be backward compatible (although one can dispute the neccessity of this) the dark etc variants are not used if you want them: \starttypescript [mono] [computer-modern] [size] \definebodyfont [4pt,5pt,6pt,7pt,8pt,9pt,10pt,11pt,12pt,14.4pt,17.3pt,20.7pt] [tt] [bf=LMTypewriter-Dark sa 1, bs=LMTypewriter-DarkOblique sa 1] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[modern][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[modern] \starttext {\tt test \bf test \definedfont[MonoBold] test} \stoptext wil give it; however, easier is: \usetypescript[modern-base][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[modern] \starttext {\tt test \bf test \definedfont[MonoBold] test} \stoptext this alternative used 10 pt as base and since we have hinting in latin modern, the results are ok \definetypeface [modern] [rm] [serif] [modern] [computer-modern] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \definetypeface [modern] [ss] [sans] [modern] [computer-modern] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \definetypeface [modern] [tt] [mono] [modern-cond] [computer-modern] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \definetypeface [modern] [mm] [math] [modern] [computer-modern] [encoding=\typescripttwo] will give give you condensed (modern-light will give you light) Hans Hans

Hi Hans, ok, you're right. What I meant: after loading lm, no further work is needed to get bold tt.

In fact, you are never backward compatible. Just an example: \setupindenting[medium] is now \setupindenting[medium] And there are a lot more. If someone does not want bold tt in lm, then there could be a switch like "\nobftt". Nevertheless: thanks for your suggestions, they work very well!

Latin Modern doesn't have a bold small caps (yet?), I think. Taco

If you really need it, generate pseudo small caps http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Pseudo_Small_Caps Vit

Yes. I've just made a reference to my message from 5th December with the subject "problems with bold small caps". Here it is (2/4 problems already solved): I would like to get bold small caps, here is my test-file: \enableregime[il1] \definebodyfont [12pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1200] \definebodyfont [11pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1100] \definebodyfont [10pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1000] \definebodyfont [9pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc0900] \definebodyfont [8pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc0800] \starttext {\sc Normal and \bf bold Small-Caps. Accents: àÉßöÜ} \stoptext And here are my problems: 1.) I get bold sc font, but the normal \sc is now the normal font. 2.) Accented characters are not correct.

Hi Peter,
And here are my problems:
1.) I get bold sc font, but the normal \sc is now the normal font.
\sc and \bf are defined at the same level in ConTeXt, so they (normally) exclude each other. My guess is that it is very unlikely that this will be fixed, but I assume it would be possible to do something using the \variants mechanism (note: I am not sure and would not know how)
2.) Accented characters are not correct.
My guess is that maybe the regime also switches the font encoding? The ecXXXX fonts definately only exist in EC encoding. Cheers, Taco

Because it is not a bug, the behaviour is intentional. Taco

Yes, and it's what variants were intended to address, to "stack" font switching behaviour on top of known shapes and weights. Old Style sometimes exists in more than regular shapes. Small Caps appear in bold and sometimes even italics versions. (Variants were also to get at fonts that wouldn't normally have a style associated with them, as well.) adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

thi sis an option indeed; the other method is just to define an additional typeface \definetypeface[mainface]..... \definetypeface[smallface]..... \definetypeface[osface]..... andthen do things like \smallface\bf typeface switching is rather efficient Hans

This is implemented at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Pseudo_Small_Caps (links to files on typokvitek.com has to be retyped, sorry) Vit

Hi Hans,

sure, but it would break compatibility (unless everyone agrees upon having bold tt enabled by default); latex has different compatibility rules (and does not default to latin modern)
But they are not so bold as the cmbtt ones. Anyway: how could the dark lmtt font be activated in ConTeXt and could this be included in the distribution?

hm, not that many i hope; concerning the indenting, that was basically a merge of two commands [and the auto yes was a bug]
If someone does not want bold tt in lm, then there could be a switch like "\nobftt".
Nevertheless: thanks for your suggestions, they work very well!
