Re: How to \bf for math?

Hi Mojca,

I must say I understand about nothing about fonts in ConTeXt. But I've
somehow managed do define a "bold vector" command, working in my
environment. I hope it helps.



\definetypeface [boldmath] [mm] [boldmath] [latin-modern] [default]

% boldsymbol work-around

\setupformulae[method=bold]
\define[1]\boldsymbol{\hbox{\formula[boldmath]{#1}}}
\define[1]\boldsymbolscript{\hbox{\formula[boldmath,script]{#1}}}
\define[1]\boldsymbolscriptscript{\hbox{\formula[boldmath,scriptscript]{#1}}}

% bold vector

\define[1]\bvec{{%
  \mathchoice
    {\let\bs=\boldsymbol}%
    {\let\bs=\boldsymbol}%
    {\let\bs=\boldsymbolscript}%
    {\let\bs=\boldsymbolscripscript}%
  \bs{#1}}}
