Hello Otared, Thank you for your answer even though I knew we could do like that. In fact I wanted to understand why a macro that works very well for several years no works. Fabrice 2018-04-08 9:09 GMT+02:00 Otared Kavian :

Hi Fabrice,

I don't know about the \symbol[EUR], but you can use directly the € symbol as in:

\unexpanded\def\euros#1{#1\,€} \starttext

\euros{100}

\stoptext

Best regards: OK

most fonts nowadays have a properly matched euro

\usesymbols[mvs] % has your EUR

\starttext

\unexpanded\def\euros#1{#1\,€}

\euros{100}

\unexpanded\def\euros#1{#1\,\symbol[europe][EUR]}

\euros{100}

\stoptext

We don't load these symbol sets by default. Soon the tex gyre fonts will contain many more symbols which means that we will also get away from some currently traditional symbols taken from math fonts.
