Hi to all, I started taking a look to fonts. Actually installation is out of my possibilities but I won't give up so easily... In any case, I was trying to understand which fonts are actually available on my context installation. How do I make \showbodyfont display all available families? Directly: are there other ways to explore available fonts? Thanks a lot Best -a- Andrea Valle DAMS - Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione Università degli Studi di Torino http://www.semiotiche.it/andrea andrea.valle@unito.it

The short answer is: you can't. From within TeX, the only thing possible is to try to load a font, and see if that works or not. There is no way to ask for a 'list of installed fonts', so you would have to iterate through a list of guesses. Perhaps the wiki pages can help with those guesses, but:

The documentation of (miktex,tetex,texlive,gwtex) should contain some information about installed fonts. If you tell what TeX distribution and what options you installed, then it is likely that someone on the list (with the same distribution) can make a guess about what you have and do not have.

It's a pity not to be able to do this kind of snooping, I think.
