Mark IV has a new the new option "fontfeatures" and you can use this to get the oldstyle numbers from the latin modern OT fonts. Option one is to redefine \os to use the numbers from the main font, you have to put the following command in your document, \def\os{\setfontfeature{oldstyle}}, option two is to write \setfontfeature{oldstyle} in the preamble of your document and ConTeXt use oldstyle numbers by default if present in the current font. There is currently no better way to enable oldstyle number for the whole document except you define your own typescripts and use them. > Thnx in advance! > > Best > Idris Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
