You can use mine as start, math is defined in type-otf.mkiv. Wolfgang
I examined the typescript given and started to apply it. I get however a strange error in that a font is not found. I replaced my line: \definefontsynonym [LucidaCalligraphy-Italic] [file:lbc.tfm] with the given: \definefontsynonym [LucidaCalligraphy-Italic] [name:lucidahandwritingitalic][features=default] The font search then comes in the afm-directory, as proved by the log (in part): fontnames | identifying tree font files with suffix afm fontnames | error when identifying afm font /Users/hans/TeX/context/ beta/tex/texmf-local/fonts/afm/yandy/lucida/lbmitex.afm: no matching pfb file fontnames | error when identifying afm font /Users/hans/TeX/context/ beta/tex/texmf-local/fonts/afm/yandy/lucida/lbmrtex.afm: no matching pfb file ... (these being math font files) The needed lbc.afm contains: ... Comment UniqueID 5029013 Comment MS-WindowsName LucidaCalligraphy Comment MacIntoshName LucidaCalligraphy FontName LucidaCalligraphy-Italic FullName Lucida Calligraphy Italic FamilyName LucidaCalligraphy Weight Normal ... Any reason why it is not found on the font search through the [name:] scheme? On 18 aug 2009, at 18:50, Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

the most important clue is that mkii and mkiv are different (1) instead of many families we only use two, see type-siz.mkiv, where you can find lines like: \definebodyfont [12pt] [mm] [mr=LMMathRoman12-Regular sa 1, mb=LMMathRoman12-Bold sa 1] (2) there is a distinction between bold alphabets (see unicode math) and a complete switch to bold; so, \bf cum suis deal with alphabets, while \mb switches to the bold math family (3) we use either opentype math fonts or virtual ones, i.e. if you use lucida, which is traditional, we need an entry in math-vfu.lua, and in the beta that is the case (but not for bold) (4) no math vectors are used in mkiv, only unicode (5) as loading and switching comes a price, we need to enable it with \enableboldmath before loading fonts so, although most things on the outside are the same in mkii/mkiv there are some fundamental differences 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
