Hi,

I’m new to ConTeXt and try to compile a document using XeTeX. Loading an otf font works fine, but I don’t get it to use oldstyle numbers. google and contextgarden did give me some hints, but I didn’t get it working. I tried:

\starttext \definetypeface[normalfont][rm][Xserif][Arno Pro] \stoptext

and several versions of things like [features=oldstyle], [onum=true], \definefontfeature[mine] with oldstyle etc. but nothing worked.

So what am I doing wrong? Is there a simple way for oldstyle numbers? (I want them in the whole document, so I prefer a simple, global solution.)

\definefontfeature[default][default][onum=yes]

\definetypeface[mainface][rm][Xserif][Arno Pro]

\setupodyfont[mainface]

\starttext 0123456789 \stoptext

Thank you very much, that works fine! Just for future questions: Where could I have found this? (I prefer reading documentation than wasting people’s time by asking …) cheers, Arno
