OK, I see. (I only searched the .tex files, but missed the .mkiv while searching for "corbel"). Thanks again!


But even if I had seen the lines with corbel, I would have asked how to use the typescript. The definition in type-otf.mkiv goes like:

\starttypescript [sans] [corbel] [name]
...
...
\stoptypescript


I guess [name] is just a default classifier for defining the base level of a filename-font mapping, right? I assume that somewhere there is a statement like

\usetypescript [sans] [corbel] [name]

after saying 

\definetypeface [mainface] [ss] [sans]  [corbel]   [default] [rscale=auto]

Is this the way this is done internally?

What exactly is rscale=auto ?


Patrick
