The following works at live.contextgarden.net, but not on my Fedora Core 2 installation.


\usetypescript[adobekb][ec]
\setupbodyfont[ppl,11pt]

Please advise on how to fix this issue.

Oh damned. The adobekb file does not exist on your system and ConTeXt
doesn't feel like giving an error message :-(

install http://levana.de/context/font/adobekb.tex  into your
homedir/TeX system.

Hmm, shouldn't \usetypescript[adobekb][..] be enough to load the file?
I have just deleted my tetex 2 installation, so I can't verify. type-akb.tex
didn't get loaded with fedora linux that the person (whatever his
name is) used so it is either not available or one has to use the
right magic to load.

Sure! We have a problem with something archaeological:

ConTeXt  ver: 2003.1.31  fmt: 2004.5.28  int: english  mes: english

So "skhilji@tampabay.rr.com" should report again.

Still no luck!!! :-(

Okay, so I got really upset with teTeX so I decided to get rid of it.  Earlier 
I said that I was using Fedora Core 2.  Now I am sitting on a SuSE 8.0 Pro 
machine.  I did the following:

1)  Uninstalled whatever TeX came with SuSE
2)  Downloaded and installed from texlive2003-inst-20030928.iso
3)  I chose not to install latex.  Just context and pdftex alongwith whatever 
texlive said about anything being "essential files"
4)  Next I wiped off whatever ConTeXt came with texlive and followed 
instructions on this page:

http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html

to install the latest ConTeXt from pragma website.

5) Then I found that adobekb.tex was still NOT installed on my system---yes 
the latest ConTeXt from pragma-ade still does not have adobekb.tex.  But as 
Hans suggested, I do have the file type-akb.tex.  As Patrick suggested, I 
downloaded and installed adobekb.tex in the TeX tree.

6)  So after all this, I try both type-akb and adobekb and the palatino font 
still refuses to cooperate.

Here are the errors that I am getting:

With this:

\usetypescript[berry][ec] % or [8r]

You don't have the proper font files in place to use the postscript
typescripts as they come in the default ConText.  For what it is worth,
neither did the Slackware 9.1 distribution that I have.

If you have the locate command installed (and the the locate database is
uptodate), run the following commands to see just what font files are on
your system:

locate uplr | grep .tfm
locate uplr | grep .pfb
locate uplr | grep .afm

If you don't have locate, use the find command to see which palatino
font files you have and where they are located. Post the results back
here. 

Also post the results of:

grep uplr /path/to/pdftex.cfg
grep pplr /path/to/pdftex.cfg

On my system the uplr8a files are mapped to the pplr8a names in
pdftex.cfg, but there are no pplr.pfb files. I ended up writing my own
typescript files before I got the URW palatino fonts to work in ConTeXt.
Bill McClain's website was a big help in this.

Re: Re: How to use PostScript font

[Salman Khilji]

I found out that while trying to install the latest ConTeXt over whatever came 
with texlive2003-inst-20030928.iso, I screwed up somewhere and ConTeXt would 
not even generate me a pdf file with cmr fonts.

So here is what I did.

1) I deleted everything about TeX from my system
2) Installed TeXLive from the iso with default options.  I did not change 
anything.  Just accepted the defaults.
3) I did not install the latest ConTeXt.  I think I will be fine with whatever 
comes with TeXLive as of Sept, 2003.
4) Now I can generate a hello world pdf file with cmr fonts just fine.
5) Yes, I do have the type-akb.tex on my system.
6) On the following:

\usetypescriptfile[type-akb]
\usetypescript[palatino][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[palatino,12pt]
\starttext
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
\stoptext


I get the following errors:

Re: Re: How to use PostScript font (SOLVED)

[Salman Khilji]

Okay.  Problem solved.  The thing is that I did not ask the texlive 
distribution to install the extra fonts package.  The palatino fonts were 
part of the extra fonts. 

Now I have another question.  It seems like \setupbodyfont[palatino] produces 
different results than \setupbodyfont[ppl].
The former tries to use palatino in all the variations in the following 
example.  The palatino fonts seems to be missing the serif variant, so the 
\ss and the normal lines look the same---i.e ConTeXt decided to use the same 
roman variant for both the \rm and the \ss line.  Even the equation uses some 
sort of postscript font that I am not familiar with.

The latter---\setupbodyfont[ppl]---is not very forceful---it uses palatino in 
the \rm, \em, and \sl lines.  Everywhere else the CMR font is used.

What causes this behavior?

Right, I did aks you if you have psnfss installed? Hmm, perhaps I
forgot, because I think that everybody has it installed...

I guess you mean sans serif? Yes, there is no such thing as Palatino
sans serif.

px I'd guess.

Well, not really cmr, but cmss, cmtt and math.

> What causes this behavior?

see type-pre.tex type-exa.tex and type-enc.tex for definitions on
those typescripts. They are just different typescripts.

If this is a recent TeX, then it has all necessary files for using
postscript fonts out of the box. Just install psnfss and use the
magic I have written elsewhere in this thread.

an alternative is: 

mkdir /usr/local/mytex 
cd /usr/local/mytex 
wget http://www.pragma-ade.com/contextt/linuxtex.zip.bz2 
bunzip2 linuxtex.zip.bz2
unzip linuxtex 
chmod -R 755 
. setuptex /usr/local/mytex
mktexlsr 
texexec --make --alone --all

every time after that 

. /usr/local/setuptex /usr/local/setuptex 

should give you a minimal context tree (i develop on a windows machine, so that is the tree we use on the linux application servers) 

(take a look at cont-sys.tex to see how we set up our context) 

(there is also mswintex.zip.bz2 and macosxtex.zip.bz2)
