("ss" means always "sans" and so on) AFAIK they are the command to switch from one style to another one, e.g. \rm, \ss but I wondered myself about this. > - What is the meaning of the fourth argument, it seems that I don't need = it? The content is the name of the typescript you want to use for the font collection, take for example you are interested to combine different fonts for one docu= ment to one collcetion. \starttypescript [letter] \definetypeface [letter] [rm] [serif] [cambria] [default] \definetypeface [letter] [ss] [serif] [corbel] [default] \definetypeface [letter] [tt] [mono] [consolas] [default] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[letter] \setupbodyfont[letter] This is waht I use in my letter manual, I combine cambria as serif font, corbel as sans font and consolas as mono font into the font collcetion lett= er. Each of the three font is defined in a seperate typescript, the typescript = for the cambria font looks like \starttypescript [serif] [cambria] ... \stoptypescript and the one for calibri \starttypescripot [sans] [calibri] ... \stoptypescript > - Same question for the fifth argument.

I suggest palatino (mathpazo?) for math but this would be more a topic for Hraban, you could try to use the luxi mono fonts for typewriter.
