Thanks, Hraban.That’s a helpful start I guess the challenge now is to get STIX Two Math to use the oldstyle numerals in STIX Two Text (by adapting code that Wolgang gave me for using oldstyle numerals with TexGyre Math). When I ran mtxrun --script fonts --list --info stixtwotext, I got mtx-fonts | onum cyrl dflt mtx-fonts | dflt dflt mtx-fonts | grek dflt mtx-fonts | latn dflt rom trk Sadly, I have no idea what this means or how it might help in identifying the Unicode range of the oldstyle numerals in STIX Two Text. And that is something I need to take advantage of Wolfgang’s code. Alan On Wed, Oct 21, 2020 at 10:31 AM Henning Hraban Ramm wrote:

I am trying to get the STIX Two fonts to display oldstyle numerals.

I have the oldstyle numerals in STIX Two Text, the problem is the math font.

So far, my mwe is: \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][STIX Two Text][] %onum=yes does not seem to work \definefontfamily[mainface][mm][STIX Two Math][] \definefontfeature[f:oldstyle][onum=yes]

\setupbodyfont[mainface, 18pt] \addfeature{f:oldstyle}

\starttext 123456789 \blank[big] $\sqrt{2} + 1234$ \stoptext

Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

mtxrun --script fonts --list --info stixtwomath

shows that STIX Two Math doesn’t provide the onum feature.
