Hi,

I would like to buy the set of Lucida fonts from TUG https://www.tug.org/store/lucida/index.html but I am wondering which flavor, Open Type or Type 1, is supposed to work smoothly (and easily…) with ConTeXt mkiv. Actually a very long time ago I bought those fonts from yandy.com http://yandy.com, but those were designed to work only on a Mac OS 9 (yes I am so that old… :-).

Since I am sure some people on the mailing list have an experience and good advices to share, I would appreciate having their opinion.

Thanks Hans for your quick reply! I guess the file type-imp-lucida-opentype.mkiv is there to take care of everything when using the font: so once I have the fonts, and ConTeXt knows where they are, can I use them just by saying \setupbodyfont[lucida]

\setupbodyfont[lucidaot]

or are there other commands to issue?
