RE: [NTG-context] how to use Times Roman font
===== Original Message From mailing list for ConTeXt users
Unfortunately, error again:
Yes, an error here as well. Did you try the two other ways I mentioned in my other reply: ============================================ %\usetypescript[adobekb][\defaultencoding] %\setupbodyfont[pos] % note the comments \usetypescript[times][\defaultencoding] \setupbodyfont[times,12pt] \starttext \input knuth \stoptext ============================================ Another way: ============================================ \definetypeface [times] [rm] [serif] [times] [default] [encoding=ec] \switchtotypeface [times] [12pt,rm] \starttext \input knuth \stoptext =========================================== If neither of these two work then something is really wrong...

Xue, I tried the following on the latest full Windows ConTeXt download (mswincontext.zip - 2005-03-16) \usetypescript[times][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[times,12pt] \starttext \showfontstrip \showbodyfont[times] Roman \bf bold \it italics \stoptext ... and the \rm font (times) is missing. The log file complains of missing characters ... Missing character: There is no A in font texnansi-utmr8a! I then tried it on http://live.contextgarden.net/ and the PDF loads, but Acrobat complains of a missing font (times) and substitutes Helvetica. I also tried many varied combinations and met with failure on each one. I realize that either the font files, or the means by which they are called within a document are in transition, but it would be very helpful if a sample document(s) were created which demonstrates and uses all the fonts provided with a complete ConTeXt install. This would serve several purposes: 1) it would demonstrate all the available fonts; 2) it would provide an up to date record of the proper and most recommended way of calling those fonts within a document. 3) it would serve as a test to ensure all the fonts were installed and are working as intended Perhaps such a document already exists, but I have not (yet) found it ...

Hi ishamid!
Yes, neither of them seems to work in my box :(
