Subject: Defining a title font.
Date: Tue, 2 Oct 2012 17:38:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121002173838.30205e71@sda3.wexfordpress.net> (raw)

Trying to use an OTF font just for the title page.
Ran mkluatexfontdb
Used the name as defined in ../otfl-names.lua
Here is my actual code:
--------------------------

\usemodule[simplefonts]
\definefont [titlefont][MyriadPro-Bold at 50bp]       
\startstandardmakeup
\titlefont 
\centerline{Scribus}
\centerline {for}
\centerline{Book Covers}
\centerline{Free Publishing Software Series}
\rm
\stopstandardmakeup
--------------------------
And here are the pertinent error messages:
------------------------------
(title.tex
resolvers       > modules > loaded: 'simplefonts'
(/home/safe/context/tex/texmf-modules/tex/context/third/simplefonts/t-simplefonts.mkiv

fonts           > defining > unable to define MyriadPro-Bold as [titlefont--0]
)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Clearly I don't know what I am doing. Can someone help?
