Converting normal font into bold
Hello together, I have an arabic font, which is quite perfect, but only a little bit too thin, so that it seems to "vanish" into the white of the paper. Unfortunately this font does not come with an bold-variant. Now I tried to manipulate it with CorelDraw, just converted into curves and added an contour (verys small 0.13pt, while font was 11pt) - and it worked! This "aritificial bold-font" works very well, better then I hoped, no problems - although it is no hand-tundes bold, but only countour-adding. Now the question: I obviously cant set the entire book (more than 600 pages) with Corel-Draw, and want too use ConText, of course. So is there a way to produce this boldness out of this too thin font within ConText, too? Thank your very much. Best regards, Huseyin

May be ConTeXt experts would have better suggestions, till then you may want to look at the fake bold option in simplefonts - http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Simplefonts#Faking_italics_and_bold_fonts -- Cheers, Rajeesh http://rajeeshknambiar.wordpress.com
