Thanks, but if I try that, I dont get the fourier fonts at all, but the lm ones (both home and at live.contextgarden.net). Best regards, Micke P On 8/30/07, Aditya Mahajan wrote:

Hi all,

when using the fourier font I get the wrong size of the opening { in the \startcases \stopcases environment. The following small example shows the problem and it fails both at my place and at http://live.contextgarden.net/

An easy workaround, use texnasi encoding :-)

\usetypescript[fourier][texnansi]

Maybe a bug somewhere, but math fonts are like a black box to me.

Update:

This seems to be a problem that is introduced after 20070403. I am running that version at work (minimal installation on linux there aswell), and there it looks OK with the fourier fonts.

There have been some major changes in font handling. It turned out that the lm fonts didn't define a design size but apparently it didn't matter until quite recently, and then more recently a workaround was added. I wouldn't be surprised to see the problem in other fonts either because they use lm for some glyphs or because they were created using the same toolchain.

Another problem is given by $\hat f$. In the older one it looks OK, but in the newer the hat is placed wrongly. New minimal example that shows both these problems:

%%%% \usetypescript[fourier][ec] \setupbodyfont[fourier,10pt]

\starttext \startformula \hat f(x)= \startcases \NC 1 \MC x>0\NR \NC 0 \MC x<0\NR \stopcases \stopformula \stoptext %%%%

Any ideas? I don't want to switch back to ver 20070407 if it is not necessary...

I'd try the latest version first. Normally I have my systems configured with a separate texmf-cont tree that I link to cont-tmf-<date> so I can very quickly switch versions. -- George N. White III Head of St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia

indeed, the tex gyre fonts etc also suffer from this but in many cases they default to 10

the lm/gyre authors are notified and will sort it out

Thanks for your replies. The lm/gyre authors does not take care of the fourier fonts, right? What does this mean if one wants to use the fourier fonts? /Micke P
