Hi font gurus, With context from begin of the year it worked to load a type 1 font with a typescript based on the following syntax: \starttypescript [serif] [LTpalatino] [name] \usetypescript[serif][fallback] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:pr] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic][file:poios] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold][file:pb] \definefontsynonym [SerifCaps][file:posc] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldOsF][file:pobos] \definefontvariant [Serif][osf][OsF] \stoptypescript \starttypescript[LT-Palatino] \definetypeface [LT-Palatino][rm][serif][LTpalatino][default][] \stoptypescript Error: \232>28 ...oldOsF][file:pobos] \definefontvariant [Serif][osf][OsF] \stoptyp... <inserted text> \232>28 \232>29 \font_typescript_process_typescript_file_and_store ... \font_typescripts_load_file ...ipt_file_and_store \else \font_typescript_pro... \next2 #1,->\font_typescripts_load_file {#1} \syst_helpers_do_process_comma_i... ... l.18 \setupbodyfont [LT-Palatino,rm,10pt] Is due to the overhauling the approach now different? Kind regards Willi

The \definefontvariant command is no longer available in MkIV because for truetype/opentype fonts it isn’t necessary. Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang, thanks for this. Indeed it works ok! (Stupid me had edited the trypescriptfile of the wrong tree before writing yesterdays mail). Willi On 16 Jan 2012, at 23:11, Wolfgang Schuster wrote:
