Hans, any idea why ConTeXt is looking for U+03B1 in font LMMath12-Regular rather than in LMRoman12-Regular? Vyatcheslav, if you want upright greek letters, you should really consider using an opentype math font (cambria, asana, irianis ADF math). Aditya

Do Irianis ADF Math include MATH table? I just checked 1.005 version and I see math glyphs but no MATH table. Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer

Arrows glyhs set completed with some dingbat ghyphs. Aditya

The NOTICE file says that it does (but I don't even know how to check that in the font) fontforge ? ttx ?

Let me rephrase. I am not motivated enough to learn how to check a MATH table in a font :)

# ttx -t MATH Asana-Math.otf Dumping "Asana-Math.otf" to "Asana-Math.ttx"... Dumping 'MATH' table... # ttx -t MATH IrianisADFMath-Regular.otf Dumping "IrianisADFMath-Regular.otf" to "IrianisADFMath-Regular#1.ttx"... No 'MATH' table found. -- luigi

we could (for the moment) map the lower range greek to italic (unless we have a matching font with upright) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I see. LM fonts do not have upright greek characters. In that case then lcgreek=normal should not be used. Extra remappings can be tricky (we then should also be checking sans serif and bold fonts, and remapping them if the font is incomplete. Aditya
