you use undefined typefaces; in mkii we default to an empty fontclass which in turn will trigger default fallbacks (i.e. the main bodyfont has no fontclass) while in mkiv we default to the 'modern' fontclass; i'm still not sure if it will be kept this way but if so, i'll make a fallback again (this time to a default fontclass) % \usetypescriptfile[tps_arial] \usetypescript[arial] \usetypescriptfile[tps_timesnewroman] \usetypescript[timesnewroman] \usetypescriptfile[tps_verdana] \usetypescript[verdana] \def\myFontSizeOT{12pt} \def\myFontSizeOF{19pt} % \setupbodyfont[arial, \myFontSizeOT] % \setupbodyfont[timesnewroman,\myFontSizeOT] \setupbodyfont[verdana, \myFontSizeOT] % \setupbodyfont[arial, \myFontSizeOF] % \setupbodyfont[timesnewroman,\myFontSizeOF] % \setupbodyfont[verdana, \myFontSizeOF] % \setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[arial,\myFontSizeOT]}] % \setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[timesnewroman,\myFontSizeOT]}] % \setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[verdana,\myFontSizeOT]}] \setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[arial,\myFontSizeOF]}] % \setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[timesnewroman,\myFontSizeOF]}] % \setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[verdana,\myFontSizeOF]}] \starttext \chapter{First Chapter} \input knuth ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks Hans.
This works, except...
\usetypescriptfile[tps_timesnewroman]
\usetypescript[timesnewroman]
\usetypescriptfile[tps_verdana]
\usetypescript[verdana]
\def\myBodyFontSize{14pt}
\def\myHeadFontSize{14pt}
\setupbodyfont[verdana,\myBodyFontSize]
\setuphead[chapter][style={\switchtobodyfont[timesnewroman,\myHeadFontSize]}]

(1) with for example
- bodyfont = verdana, head font = timesnewroman (or the reverse)
bodyfont size = 12pt, headfont size 12 pt => pdf is fine
bodyfont size = 13pt, headfont size 13 pt => chapter head is blank
bodyfont size = 14pt, headfont size 14 pt => chapter head is blank
(2) what to use instead of \definetypeface[myFont][...] to be able to write
\setupbodyfont[myFont,...] and/or \switchtobodyfont[myFont,...] ?

you use undefined typefaces; in mkii we default to an empty fontclass which in turn will trigger default fallbacks (i.e. the main bodyfont has no fontclass) while in mkiv we default to the 'modern' fontclass; i'm still not sure if it will be kept this way but if so, i'll make a fallback again (this time to a default fontclass)

At first I didn't understand a thing about your answer, however after digging a bit further and finding out that when replacing 14pt with 14.4 pt ( re: \showbodyfontenvironment table ) it works again. Guess I now understand what "fallbacks"means. :O) For future reference... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typeface http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallback_font Alan
