Now I'll have to back to waiting for Duke Nukem 3D again ...

I suppose that Luigi is already testing things, and will report on it in detail, but here's a quick and dirty check on what's in there:

\starttypescript [math] [stix] [name]    \definefontsynonym[MathRoman][file:stixgeneral.otf] [features=math] \stoptypescript

\starttypescript [serif] [stix] [name] % why 'italic' infull and 'bol' without 'd'?    \definefontsynonym[Serif]          [file:stixgeneral.otf] [features=default]    \definefontsynonym[SerifBold]      [file:stixgeneralbol.otf] [features=defaulth]    \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic]    [file:stixgeneralitalic.otf] [features=default]    \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][file:stixgeneralbolita.otf] [features=default] \stoptypescript

\starttypescript[stix]    \definetypeface [stix] [rm] [serif] [stix] [default]    \definetypeface [stix] [mm] [math]  [stix] [default] \stoptypescript

\usetypescript[stix] \setupbodyfont[stix]

\usemodule[fnt-25]

Impressive reaction time from all of you...

And what about Khaled's promise? He vowed to release an OpenType version of the STIX fonts with MATH table within one week of their official release ;-)

He's probably still deciding on either or not to agree to the license as one needs to confirm explicitly -) Which reminds me that i need to add typescripts for the xits fonts, Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Are these any good? It sounds like an epic thing, but why is that so?

depends on your needs, the current otf version is probably usable for primary school math (no large operators and so in the core font) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Oh, so it's primarily a font aimed for mathematical equations and suchlike?

Or the Guinness Book of Records with the biggest repertoire of math symbols (althoug cambria probably has more) . \starttext \showfont[file:stixgeneral.otf][all] \stoptext (which reminds me ... the fonts probably also lack the smaller desing sizes) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hello, Could someone please confirm that it is ok to use \def like this: \def\ru{\switchtobodyfont[cyr]\language[ru]} \starttext \item {\ru Эйхенбаум, Борис. {\it Теория «формального метода»}.} Some other text in the main language. \stoptext This is MkII with XeTeX, cyr is defined as \definetypeface[cyr][rm][Xserif][CMU Serif] \definetypeface[cyr][ss][Xsans][CMU Sans Serif] \definetypeface[cyr][tt][Xmono][CMU Typewriter Text] because 'Latin Modern' lacks cyrillic glyphs and 'Computer Modern Unicode' lacks some Lithuanian glyphs (and looks slightly different). -- -- Rogutės Sparnuotos
