Dear crew, Is there a list of prepackaged fonts/typescripts that comes with (fp/MiK/gw/te)TeX/ConTeXt? I think it is important for that info to be made very public. showfonts.pdf has at least some of them (plus a couple of non-free ones) but I don't know if this is an exhaustive set. A new ConTeXt user (especially one from a non-TeX background) should be able to easily find a list of the fonts/typescripts available in a full (fp/MiK/gw/te)TeX/ConTeXt system. If I am totally clueless and missed this info, then I apologize:-) Best Idris ============================ Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
Hello Idris,
Is there a list of prepackaged fonts/typescripts that comes with (fp/MiK/gw/te)TeX/ConTeXt?
Not that I know of. The distributions should supply a list of available fonts.
I think it is important for that info to be made very public.
I agree completely. I always wanted to start a section "fonts" on contextgarden with samples and instructions on how to use the supplied fonts. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net
Hi Idris, Yes indeed there sould be a file to test the "built-in" fonts. Recently I was working on that. The file is in the meantime sent to Hans, so that he can give me advice how to finalize it.- May be within short notice we will have a demo file. Kind regards Willi ishamid wrote:

That sounds like great news; looking forward to it! Idris -- Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
