Here is the example from the wiki
--------------------------------------
\setupbodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=10pt]
\setmainfont[TeX Gyre Termes]
\setsansfont[TeX Gyre Heros]
\setmonofont[TeX Gyre Cursor]
---------------------------------
If the font (e.g., MinionPro) has a separate
italic font should I add it?
If so is the correct command:
\setitalicfont[\setupbodyfont[MinionPro-It]
??

John,

\setupbodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=10pt]
\setmainfont[TeX Gyre Termes][italicfont=TeX Gyre Pagella Italic]
\starttext
regular \em italics
\stoptext

I hope it helps,


Pablo

That looks like a solution, thanks.



Now I have a related question. When I run:
mtxrun --script fonts * >foo
The file foo has three columns. We only use the
word in the right hand column with the suffix
stripped off. So what is the purpose of the the
other two columns? for example:

minionproitalic minionproit MinionPro-It.otf

but we only use "MinionPro-It".

Just curious.

There is no need to ad the italic font by hand.

\definefontfamily [john] [rm] [Minion Pro]

\setupbodyfont[john]

\starttext
Upright and \it Italic!
\stoptext

Wolfgang

You can check the recent mailing thread with subject "the new
simplefonts stuff" for some discussion of font names and mtxrun
output.

Kind regards
