Subject: Defining and using font weights
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2014 09:25:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <140a8198088f8ebb7fb1e452ed5098b9@aksdb.homeip.net> (raw)

Hello,

I'm not able to figure out how I can make use of a font with "custom" 
font weights.
I have a font that comes with "regular", "bold", "half-bold" and "ultra 
bold".

I currently define the font like this:
\definefontfamily[myfont][rm][myfont][sc=file:MyFontRegular,bf=file:MyFontBold]

Which at least makes it possible to use the default font and \bf ...
But simply adding something like hb=... or ult=... doesn't seem to cut 
it.

So how would I define this font to be able to also use the half-bold and 
ultra weights? (preferably with a switch like \bf, \it, etc.)

Best regards,
Andreas
