Hi, I've run into a problem using Helvetica Neue on a Mac under Snow
Leopard. The font is provided by Apple and was a dfont package on
10.5, now it is a ttc. I am getting garbled and funny text using it.
An example is --
\usetypescriptfile[type-mac]
\usetypescript[helvetica-neue]
\setupbodyfont[helvetica-neue,sans,10pt]
\starttext
{\bf Hello World, 1234567890\par}
{Hello World, 1234567890\par}
\stoptext
I am attaching pdfs that show the correct (from Leopard) and incorrect
output. Both systems are running ConTeXt 2009.08.19 (actually I just
updated to 2009.08.30 with no help, this is using minimals) and LuaTeX
beta-0.43.0-2009081811. The bold font gets the letters correct but it
looks terrible; normal sans text is completely garbled. I have
reloaded my font database but it didn't help.
Thanks,
Brian
