Hi!

I am trying to run the example Hans published on the 1st of December with a new upload. It is about using the variable font Nupuram.

I downloaded the font in a big .zip file. It contains: two explaining files and  folder with  sub-folder "Nupuram", which in turn contains 6 subsub-filders: - otf with 32 otf font files - otf-variable with 1 file "Nupuram-VF.otf" - ttf with 32 ttf font files - ttf-variable with 1 file "Nupuram-VF.ttf" - ufo with 32 subfolders xxx.ufo - webfonts with 33 xxx.woff2 files

After looking to contextgarden,I tried to put the "Nupuram" sub-folder or only the folders with .otf in different places of my context-lmtx folder, and using "mtxrun --script font --reload". But the example of Hans didn't work.

Then I install the .ttf font files in Windows\fonts; it works, but 1) trying to install the Nupuram-VF.ttf, I have the message that Nupuram-Regular is already installed; and 2) I get the font in the example, but no changes of width or colour.

So, now I deleted all the Nupuram everywhere. How could I have it fully working under context-lmtx?

I have different places for fonts in my context-lmtx: - tex\texmf\fonts      mainly empty except \data - texmf-context\fonts  populated - texmf-fonts  empty - texmf-modules\fonts  populated don't mis instances and variable fonts here because they have clashing (internal) names; put the variable fonts in:

fonts/data/nupuram/* then run mtxrun --make and see if s-fonts-variable.mk*v runs (check at the end what font is used) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Alain, you mean https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2022/107279.html.

After installing fonts, I always run: mtxrun --scripts cache --erase && mtxrun --generate This helps to remove all the cache (so it doesn’t interfere with new features to read fonts [among other things]).

Then I install the .ttf font files in Windows\fonts; it works, but 1) trying to install the Nupuram-VF.ttf, I have the message that Nupuram-Regular is already installed; and 2) I get the font in the example, but no changes of width or colour.

From fonts/Nupuram-Color/otf-color/ copy Nupuram-Color.colrv1.otf (to

Install either the variable font or the singular fonts. And also install OTF or TTF. This prevents clashes with font names. https://smc.org.in/downloads/fonts/nupuram/Nupuram.zip doesn’t contain the color version. https://smc.gitlab.io/fonts/Nupuram/fonts/Nupuram-Color.zip contains it. the directory below). After having copied the font to texmf-fonts/, run "mtxrun --scripts cache --erase && mtxrun --generate". Color should be fine. I’m checking what may be wrong with weight.

So, now I deleted all the Nupuram everywhere. How could I have it fully working under context-lmtx?

This is the right directory to copy you fonts. It doesn’t get modified (so contents won’t be erased after an update). Other directories aren’t designed to contain user fonts. I hope it helps now. Happy holiday season, Pablo

Thank you for your help. It works. Alain Thanks for you help.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Regards
