Dear Contex'ers,

Do you by any chance know how to change to the postscript version of a given font?

To be more specific: I am working with Arabtex, whose author K. Lagally, advises using the postscript fonts, made by Taco Hoekwater, but does not describe how. It should be easy, though. I have installed everything, ArabTex works perfect, the regular font is fine and works allright for modest purposes, but I need to produce high-quality output soon.

in most cases (when using pdftex) it is enough to add the font names to the map file (at least that worked when i played with arabtex some time ago) filename < filename.pfb etc Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
