On my Mac, I am trying: \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Optima] \setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt] {\bf Bold} and {\it Italic} and {\rm Regular} text. What do I need to do to get actual bold and italics in my output? Thx, G

What do I need to do to get actual bold and italics in my output?

\bi == \bf\it Or by "actual bold" you mean something different?

I think Henning Hraban Ramm meant not OS font cache (but may be including it, I'm not a Mac OS user) but context font cache. Run $ mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force and try above '--list --all ...' command again and your example:

...

Steps to happiness: 1. Extract the ttc font to ttf 2. Copy the ttf files to your local texmf directory 3. reload the font cache 4. enrich your vocabulary by learning the words “thank you” 5. never have to deal with stupid people who didn’t read all 10,000 lines of the log file you posted 6. profit!

I think Henning Hraban Ramm meant not OS font cache (but may be including it, I'm not a Mac OS user) but context font cache. Run

$ mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force

and try above '--list --all ...' command again

No, since all the subfonts were already found, that’s not the problem.

...

and your example:

...
\starttext \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Optima] \setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt]

...
{\bf Bold} and {\it Italic} and {\rm Regular} text. \stoptext

The font definition belongs before \starttext. Good if it works... But Gerben’s example was lacking \starttext .. \stoptext – didn’t try, but that might be the culprit. Best, Hraban
