Hello everyone! My question is as in subject: how to learn ConTeXt? And another ones: How to install ConTeXt? Manually or from, e.g., TeXlive? I would like to typeset in Antykwa Torunska or Antykwa Poltawskiego. Setting \setupbodyfont[...] yields errors about missing ec-ant* fonts (I use the TeXlive 2004 installation, the same thing happened in TeXlive 2003). Greetings -- Marcin Borkowski
Hi Marcin If you have a working TeXlive thats ok. You can use this. - Another approach is to take a minimal distribution from Pragma. I have both on my computer.Hans's ditribution does perfectly what I need. If you want to stay with ConTeXt then I see no reason to take on board more than Hans provides in his minimal distribution. The easiest way to pick up ConTeXt is to start with the "ConTeXT an excursion" manual. A good place for info and tips is the ConTeXt wiki (http://contextgarden.net/Main_Page) Seting up the bodyfont is is basically not difficult, but it has changed in time ... Provided you use the latest ConTeXt: For Antykwa Torunska the following shoud work \usetypescript[antykwa-torunska][texnansi] \definetypeface [myfont] [rm] [serif] [antykwa-torunska] [default] [encoding=texnansi] \setupbodyfont[myfont,rm,12pt] For Antykwa Poltawskiego it will be: \usetypescript[antykwa-poltawskiego][texnansi] \definetypeface [myfont] [rm] [serif] [antykwa-poltawskiego] [default] [encoding=texnansi] \setupbodyfont[myfont,rm,12pt] Success Willi Marcin Borkowski wrote:

An addition: the source of the pdftex manual is called pdftex-t.tex. It is available on the internet (as I found out today). Regards, Robert Ermers h h extern wrote:
