That's great! I didn't know about pdffonts… Well, I don't know much about fonts in general :) So, now that's quite complicated (for me). This is what I get: name type emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- --------- MAYMBF+TeXGyreTermes-Bold CID Type 0C yes yes yes 18 0 YYCTGW+TeXGyreTermes-Italic CID Type 0C yes yes yes 19 0 MRLZOQ+TeXGyreTermes-Regular CID Type 0C yes yes yes 20 0 PJSRME+txsy Type 1 yes yes no 29 0 ADYQWN+TeXGyreTermes-Regular CID Type 0C yes yes yes 30 0 JHYYBD+TeXGyreTermes-Italic Type 1 yes yes no 31 0 SDGCFO+rtxmi Type 1 yes yes no 32 0 GOISLI+TeXGyreTermes-Regular CID Type 0C yes yes yes 33 0 GQGRIV+LMMono10-Regular CID Type 0C yes yes yes 37 0 VKFEDD+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 44 0 WTQJQL+Times-Roman TrueType yes yes no 45 0 WWKUXC+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 64 0 GFUUDN+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 79 0 YTRUAX+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 98 0 UBKRGH+TeXGyreTermes-BoldItalic CID Type 0C yes yes yes 113 0 EZQBWI+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 120 0 YTUNRR+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 135 0 HMXOTK+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 150 0 FQSXLW+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 171 0 UYMOQM+AppleSymbols TrueType yes yes yes 172 0 KKTZRF+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 193 0 ZTVNCA+Times-Roman TrueType yes yes no 213 0 LWXRQW+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes no 214 0 I guess Apple Symbols and txsy are there because of mathematical symbols, but what about Termes and Times-Roman? Also, is that TimesNewRomanPSMT the “official” Times New Roman, or a “quasi”-Times? I ask because my publisher seems to have strict font requirements, and has asked me to check that my paper be entirely in Times New Roman… Nicola

Your best bet, then, is to download the MS TT core fonts package. http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/ That installs 'real' Times New Roman, which you can then use in the usual way. mathew [ I'm assuming you're using Linux, because if you're using Windows or a Mac you should already have Times New Roman installed. ] -- URL:http://www.pobox.com/~meta/

Hi, a document of mine (compiled with the latest mkiv beta) contains the following setup:

\usetypescript[times][ec] \setupbodyfont[times,10pt]

\setupbodyfont is enough, you don’t need \usetypescript here and font encoding (i.e. “ec”) are gone.

Ok. Please bear with me, understanding of font handling mechanisms is still beyond my reach. This is the best I was able to do so far to use Times New Roman: \starttypescript [serif] [myfont] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [name:timesnewroman] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [name:timesnewromanbold] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [name:timesnewromanitalic] \definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted] [name:timesnewromanitalic] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [name:timesnewromanbolditalic] \stoptypescript \definetypeface [myfont] [rm] [serif] [myfont] \definetypeface [myfont] [mm] [math] [times] \setupbodyfont[myfont,rm,10pt] \definefont[FigureCaptionStyle][SerifBold at 9pt] \setupcaptions[inbetween={\blank[6pt]},width=max,align=middle,style=FigureCaption Style,suffix={.}] Is this the mkiv way? Nicola ps: for aligning footnote symbols, I have no clue yet.

That's was I had tried in the first place. But how can I change the math font then?

\setmathfont[times] Wolfgang
