Re: Footnotes

["Willi Egger" <w.egger@boede.nl>]

Hi Pawel,

After all the solution is simpel ...

By coincidence i detected that there is a distinct difference in the
following two commands which I used independently in two "mode" sections in
my environment file. This is then also the reason why I started to
understand ... :-]

\switchtobodyfont[palatino,rm,10pt]

This command switches the bodytext-font to the indicated font. It leaves the
footnotes font untouched. i.e. it remains either CMR or CMSS depending on
the setup of  \setupfootnotes[bodyfont={small, rm}] or
\setupfootnotes[bodyfont={small, ss}]

\setupbodyfont[Myfont,rm,10pt]

This command will force the bodyfont and the footnotes font to be the same.
If e.g. Myfont is setup as a typeface of Palatino for rm and Helvetica for
ss, then the footnotes will be in Palatino when saying
\setupfootnotes[bodyfont={small, rm}] and will be typeset in Helvetica when
saying \setupfootnotes[bodyfont={small, ss}]

Cheers Willi
