Thanks Hans,
I followed what you said and successfully generated persian interface
and now want to test it. How can I compile a file with an specific
interface. I tried "context --interface=cont-pe file" but it compiled
the file with en interface.
Thanks

Hi,

now, for a persian interface, one needs to

Hello, What needs to be done to include greek fonts on top of the minimal installation? Thank you. example: \usemodule[greek] \starttext \greek{kalamos} \stoptext

Well, it does say in a pretty obvious manner: you'll need to install the cbgreek fonts, including the map file. However, I'm not sure it will work OOTB; the cbgreek fonts have changed a bit, and s-grk-00.tex isn't really maintained (file date is Oct. 2004). If you're using luatex, you don't really need this module anyway; you simply choose a font which has Greek characters and input in Unicode Greek. HTH Thomas

[a bit OT] Do you know some fonts Arial/Helvetica like that are good for Greek ? I have some samples under mkii, and I would like to test them under mkiv minimals. -- luigi

Hi Luigi, you're looking for sans fonts, right? No, I don't really have any good Arial/Helvetica-like fonts. I mix Gentium with sans on my slides and find it acceptable; Arial Unicode of course has Greek, but is really ugly, as is Lucida Grande (on the Mac). Have a look at http://www.greekfontsociety.gr/pages/en_typefaces1.html , maybe there's something you'll like. Best Thomas
