normal font incorrectly set to italic
hi, when i build my context mark iv font database via mtxrun --script font --reload, for some fonts i get italics when i want normal fonts, most notably with “cambria” and “envy code r”. with cambria, this is likely due to the fact that the regular and math variants are served within a .ttc file. \setmainfont[Cambria][regularfont=Cambria Math] does the trick (i use simplefonts), as well as some obscure chinese ttc2ttf program i found on the web. with envy code r, i have no idea. mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern="envy*" yields: envycoder envycoder /home/phil/.fonts/Envy Code R 7/Envy Code R.ttf envycoderbold envycoderbold /home/phil/.fonts/Envy Code R 7/Envy Code R Bold.ttf envycoderitalic envycoderitalic /home/phil/.fonts/Envy Code R 7/Envy Code R Italic.ttf envycodernormal envycoderitalic /home/phil/.fonts/Envy Code R 7/Envy Code R Italic.ttf you can see the problem. how can i circumvent it? thanks, phil

I guess your version of the simplefonts module is too old because the current version will ignore „envycodernormal“. Wolfgang
