Frans, > how is \oldstyle defined? \oldstyle is from plain.tex and basically just switches to \fam1. \os does almost the same, but uses context's font mechanism (\normalizedbodysize\cm\mi). In general the following trick works: \definealternativestyle [oud] [\oldstyle] [] \starttekst Er zijn \oud{7} kinderen in klas {\oud 3}. \stoptekst > I have to admit that oldstyle is not implememented very well, simply > because I lack os fonts. I need more input on that. Oldstyle should be part of the encoding-specific commands, just like the accents. Now I have had to redefine \oldstyle for Frans to get the above definition to work. (font-fg.tex says: \let\oldstyle\sc) Taco -- Taco Hoekwater texhelp@wkap.nl Kluwer Academic Publishers -- Pre Press -- Achterom 119, 3311 KB Dordrecht, The Netherlands tel. 31-78-6392550 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
