Re: [NTG-context] ntg-context Digest, Vol 180, Issue 23
Thanks, Pablo. I am assuming I need to have Utopia installed in my usual
font folder. I tried with Erewhon (I have otf files for that) and it works.
Thank you.
In a related note, is there any reasonable way to use the latex math font *Math
Times Pro 2* (https://www.pctex.com/mtpro2.html)? I know a latex user who
bought that font and I wonder if I can convince him to get on the ConTeXt
boat.

As the subject says. I've been experimenting with having a by-project context folder, so I can have a "frozen" version for each project. I see there's an option to install more fonts (including utopia, useful for a project I'm working on). However, I have no idea how to use these fonts. Are they available in mkiv? only for mkii? Do we have typescripts for those fonts? If so, how are they called? Are those fonts actually usable or are they just remains from a past era?
Hi Andrés,
this sample works fine with both MkIV and LMTX (no --fonts=all required):
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Utopia] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \input zapf \stoptext
Just in case it helps,

Dear sirs,
Is there a way to make crosswords or word puzzles in context? In my hippocampus I have a vague idea that this has already been tried, but I can't find this code anymore. AFAIK there are only packages for LaTeX to create crossword but you can use natural or extreme tables to create them. For the input Lua can be a better choice because you can put your words (or numbers) in a Lua table and use a loop to create a table for TeX.

Hi Andrés, I’m afraid that the consistency of message threads suffers with reply to digest messages (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2019/thread.html). At least, consider editing the subject and removing the irrelevant parts from other messages, as suggested in:

Don’t get me wrong, a message may get no reply because it goes unnoticed. Regarding Math Times Pro 2, I wonder whether "\definefontfamily[mainface][mm][Math Times Pro 2]" would allow partial usage. But my background is in humanities and math is all Greek to me 😅. Just in cas it might help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
