Is there anywhere an option to get an embolden effect as with the following pdf literal? I found the extend option but it doesn't give the intended look
\starttext \font\test={Arial:mode=node;script=latn;language=DFLT;+tlig;} \test
abc
\pdfextension literal direct {2 Tr 0.15 w}% abc \pdfextension literal direct {0 Tr 0 w}%
\font\test={Arial:mode=node;script=latn;language=DFLT;+tlig;extend=1.1} \test abc \stoptext

Hi Ulrike,
I guess this gives a similar effect:
\starteffect[both]abc\stopeffect
You can play with the options (search for "\setupeffect " in http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/qrcs/setup-en.pdf).
I hope it helps,
Pablo

Sorry I wasn't completly clear: starteffect seems to work with attributes on nodes but I'm looking for an *font* option (so that I can create a faked bold font).

As far as I know, thie isn’t implemented as a font feature (such as slant). As you say, stretch is something different.
I wonder whether Hans would be interested in implementing an embold font feature.
Sorry for not being helpful,
Pablo

Ulrike,
Hans has implemented it as font feature in latest beta (2018.05.12 00:07).
The feature itself is documented in:
http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/onandon.pdf#page=83
Just in case it helps,
Pablo
