definetypeface confusion

definetypeface confusion

[Patrick Gundlach]

Hi there,

I am a bit confused about \definetypeface. I try to mix some
self-installed otf-fonts. Serif works fine, but I can't get the sans
variant to work:

\definetypeface [chaparral][rm][serif] [chaparral][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [myriad]   [ss][sans]  [myriad]   [default][encoding=texnansi]

\ss does not switch to myriad (instead, ConTeXt uses lmss), but \myriad
does! So I think that the font is installed correctly and the
typescript is not completely broken.

How should the \setupbodyfont look like? My current setup is:
\setupbodyfont[chaparral,14pt]

What other information do you need?

Patrick

Try:
\definetypeface [chaparral]  [ss][sans]  [myriad]   [default] 
[encoding=texnansi]

(assuming that the typsecript "myriad" defines the font as Sans etc).

Hi Patrick,

I'm myself not a font expert but one of the next two solutions should work.

\setupbodyfont[chaparral,myriad,14pt]

with your current \definetypeface settings

or

\definetypeface
[mytypeface][rm][serif][chaparral][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [mytypeface][ss][sans] [myriad]
[default][encoding=texnansi]

\setupbodyfont[mytypeface]

Gruß
Wolfgang

Hello Thomas,


[...]

> Try:

> [encoding=texnansi]

great! This works. Thanks (also to Wolfgang). Now another question:
I'd like to set the interlinespace for \rm only. 

My attempt:

\definebodyfontenvironment [chaparral][14pt][interlinespace=20pt]

changes the interlinespace for all fonts and 

\definebodyfontenvironment [Serif][14pt][interlinespace=20pt]

does 'nothing' (no changed interlinespace at all)


This is my setup:
--------------------------------------------------
\definetypeface [foo]   [rm][serif] [chaparral][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [foo]   [ss][sans]  [myriad][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [foo]   [tt][mono]  [modern][computer-modern] [encoding=texnansi]

\definebodyfontenvironment [foo][14pt][interlinespace=20pt]
\setupbodyfont[foo,14pt]
--------------------------------------------------

Any idea how to setup interlinespace for rm, ss and tt differently?

My application: I have normal text (\rm) and some code samples and I'd
like to have fewer interlinespace in the code samples. Of course I
could put some code in the setup for the code samples
(\setupinterlinespace[line=xxxpt]??) and this would be the fallback
solution. Thinking of it, this might even be the best solution...

Hi Patrick,

can you try the following setup

\definebodyfontenvironment[chaparral][14pt][interlinespace=20pt]

No effect with:


\definetypeface [foo]   [rm][serif] [chaparral][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [foo]   [ss][sans]  [myriad][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [foo]   [tt][mono]  [modern][computer-modern] [encoding=texnansi]

\definebodyfontenvironment [chaparral][14pt][interlinespace=20pt]
\setupbodyfont[foo,14pt]


When I replace 'foo' with 'chaparral', all fonts get the
interlinespace.

Patrick
