Dear Hans, Silly Questions: I use MikTeX 2.4 and there are some ConTeXt Demos underneath texmf/doc/context/demos. If I try to process the File: "d-en-005.tex" the Statement \setupbodyfont[pos] makes trouble; for PDF-Output. The Fonts in your Documentation looks so nice; I'm looking for a nice Serif Font e.g. Palationo. Unfortunately the documentation about Fonts, I can't put into practice. Can you help me to get the Adobe Fonts for PDF up and running? Best Regards Dieter

Having recently fought with the same issue (i.e. \setupbodyfont[pos]) with my recent installation of TeXLive, I found one answer in the user settings - this might be what you are looking for (don't understand enough of fonts to say for sure). The TeXLive cont-sys.rme/cont-sys.tex settings file says: % If you run into missing font metrics kind of problems, % you may want to uncomment: % \usetypescript[adobekb] [\defaultencoding] Well, I don't expect my users to understand about changing the cont-sys.rme/cont-sys.tex file, so the settings need to be in the file/environment and thus I put this on top of my file instead (I use ec encoding, seems to work best with Windows): \usetypescript[adobekb][ec] \usetypescript[pos] % maybe I don't need this line any more??? \setupbodyfont[pos,10pt] And it works like a charm, at least with my files. All complaints stopped at once, which made me *very* happy. Looks like I can soon provide my dummy users with something easily installable that doesn't need any tweaking... Hope this helps, Mari

\setupbodyfont[pos] is the old method and in that case the \usetypescript[pos] is not needed the more modern way is: \usetypescript[postscript][ec] \setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt] that way you can mix typefaces, e.g. \usetypescript[palatino][ec] \setupbodyfont[palatino,10pt] Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
