Subject: \setupbodyfont restricted to pt as unit
Date: Wed, 16 May 2012 21:24:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120516212442.78f66969@Zewz> (raw)

Hi!

Is it by design, that \setupbodyfont only accepts “pt” as unit?

%\setupbodyfont [18pt]               % pt works
\setupbodyfont [18bp]                % bp fails
\definefont [testbp] [Serif at 18bp] % bp works
\setupinterlinespace [line=24bp]     % bp works

\starttext
	Foo\testbp Bar
\stoptext

Not that I see any difference between “pt” and “bp” with these small
sizes, but usually all commands accepting a length unit can be fed
with all TeX units.

Marco
