Bold letters in math and does tikz work
Aditya, thanks very much for your reply. Is the default font in context, a
unicode font. The layout of my file is
\startenvironment Layout
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]
\setuplayout[width=5.5in,height=10in,backspace=1.5in,topspace=0.5in,header=1.25in,footer=1.25in]
\setupwhitespace[medium]

\setuphead[chapter][color=midnightblue,after=\vskip 2ex]
\setuphead[subject][color=midnightblue]
\setupitemize[stopper=),left=(]
\setupitemize[headstyle=bold]

I do NOT get bold with $ {\bf x} $ command. It is upright, but not bold.
Thanks for your help.

Hello,
Can someone please tell me how to get bold math symbols in Context. I am using
ConTeXt ver: 2009.06.14 21:01 MKIV fmt: 2009.7.7 int: english/english
${\bi A}$ (bold italic) or with a unicode font use can also use ${\bf A}$ (bold upright).
Also, does Tikz work with the latest version of context minimals?
This needs to be fixed by Till Tantanu. There was a long email discussion on this.

No. It is a virtual font created from latin modern math font.

Hans, there is a bug in math-vfu. In all bold variants in make_fonts, "vector =" is missing. See the attached patch. Aditya

I did not test the other patch since I did not understand what it does. I will run it though my test docs and visually inspect the results. Aditya
Thanks again, Aditya.
Anyone, is there a way to get bold upright symbols in math for the default
Context font? If not, which font can I use that is available with the
default Context minimals installation that is a unicode font.
Thank you.

You can get bold upright symbol in math fonts. There was a bug in math-vfu.lua, for which I gave a patch in my previous email. If you apply that patch to math-vfu and then regenerate formats, ${\bf A}$ will give upright bold math. If you do not want to patch math-vfu on your own, wait for the next beta by Hans. This will not work with bold greek letters or bold operators. Aditya

Thanks Aditya. I have no clue how to use the patch. I think I will wait for the next Beta from Hans.
