Hello, does someone have a typescript (or what's now needed) for using the wonderful delicious font with context? http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/delicious.html It's available in opentype format. Thank you Uwe Koloska

I used it myself for the examples in my letter manual.

Ah - Thank you! But what is necessary to let it be known to context? (process with texfont, etc.) And where can I find the "letter manual"? The letter-doc.pdf seems not to include any examples nor the delicious fonts ... Uwe -- Dipl.-Ing.

Save the typescripts in a file with the name "type-delicious.tex" and use it in your document with: \usetypefile [delicious] \usetypescript[delicious] \setupbodyfont[delicious] \starttext My document with the delicious fonts. \stoptext You could put the fonts in the font directory of your OS or in a folder in your TeX tree, to let LuaTeX or XeTeX know about your fonts call "luatools --generate" or "context --generate" for LuaTeX and "fc-cache -v -r" (not sure about the parameters) for XeTeX. To get a PDF file save my example in a file with the name "delicious.tex" (or whatever you want) and process it either with "texexec --lua delicious" or "context delicious" (faster than the texexec call) for LuaTeX and "texexec --xtx delicious" for XeTeX.

And where can I find the "letter manual"? The letter-doc.pdf seems not to include any examples nor the delicious fonts ...

Hello Wolfgang, hello list, thank you for the help! Unfortunately the code doesn't work flawlessly with the current minimal context distribution. So for the archive, here are the corrected files and a short usage description: The typescript that defines the context bindings for the delicious font from http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/delicious.html --- type-delicious.--------------------------------------------------------- \starttypescript [sans] [delicious] \setups[font:fallback:sans] \definefontsynonym [Sans] [Delicious-Regular] \definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [Delicious-Italic] \definefontsynonym [SansBold] [Delicious-Bold] \definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [Delicious-BoldItalic] \definefontsynonym [SansCaps] [Delicious-Caps] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [sans] [delicious] \definefontsynonym [Delicious-Regular] [name:Delicious-Roman] \definefontsynonym [Delicious-Italic] [name:Delicious-Italic] \definefontsynonym [Delicious-Bold] [name:Delicious-Bold] \definefontsynonym [Delicious-BoldItalic] [name:Delicious-BoldItalic] \definefontsynonym [Delicious-Caps] [name:Delicious-SmallCaps] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [delicious] \definetypeface [delicious] [ss] [sans] [delicious] [default] \stoptypescript ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now the testfile: --- delicious-test.tex ----------------------------------------------------- \usetypescriptfile [type-delicious] \usetypescript[delicious] \setupbodyfont[delicious] \starttext My document with the delicious fonts. \input knuth \stoptext ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now save these two file together with the otf-files from the delicious download in a directory and call the luatex version of context with this command: texexec --lua delicious-test.tex What did I change? 1. The interface for the \definefontsynonym command seems to have changed: There is no third parameter -- this one "[features=default]" end up in the document as text. 2. To load the typescript, the command is not "\usetypefile [delicious]" but "\usetypescriptfile [type-delicious]" Have fun! Uwe

Now the testfile: --- delicious-test.tex ----------------------------------------------------- \usetypescriptfile [type-delicious] \usetypescript[delicious] \setupbodyfont[delicious]

\starttext

My document with the delicious fonts.

\input knuth

\stoptext ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now save these two file together with the otf-files from the delicious download in a directory and call the luatex version of context with this command: texexec --lua delicious-test.tex

What did I change?

1. The interface for the \definefontsynonym command seems to have changed: There is no third parameter -- this one "[features=default]" end up in the document as text.

I will test it today evening and can give you tommorow an answer but what you say makes no sense, there was always a third parameter for \definefontsynonym and Hans use it too in type-otf.tex.

...

2. To load the typescript, the command is not "\usetypefile [delicious]" but "\usetypescriptfile [type-delicious]"

Both commands are equivalent, I used always the short form in my documents since a few months and got never any problem with it.

...

Have fun! Uwe

Makes no sense because you need the third parameter to define smallcaps if you don't have a seperate font but select it as OpenType feature. Kerning, ligatures etc. are enabled with the features parameter too.

...

2. To load the typescript, the command is not "\usetypefile [delicious]" but "\usetypescriptfile [type-delicious]"

Why did it not work for you, do you get a error message or is the file not loaded, give us more information, ConTeXt version, LuaTeX version, log files ... I attached my typescript and test files with the output for XeTeX and LuaTeX. Wolfgang

No idea, what was wrong ... The third parameter was included as normal text in the resulting pdf.

I've got an error that the command doesn't matches it's definition. This works today without problems, too ...

Maybe a simple misunderstanding: 'texexec --lua' works fine, but 'context' (the application) gives the missing tfm error. This is because the standard runtime called by the application 'context' is pdftex and not luatex, isn't it? Uwe

No, 'context' always runs luatex, and not pdftex. The script 'context' calls 'mtxrun --script context' which in turn calls 'mtx-context.lua' which does all the work. mtx-context.lua is run by the lua interpreter inside luatex, and always runs in mkiv mode. You should be able to check this by looking at the top few lines of the log file. Aditya

It's possible he defined a script by himself for ConTeXt which use pdfTeX, in this case he should replace them with ones delivered with the distribution, he can find them in $TEXMF/scripts/context/stubs/(unix|mswin)/ Wolfgang

context (mtx-context) currently only handles luatex (i may add support for pdftex/xetex so that we can replace th eruby scripts, but it has a low priority) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
