Dowes of AMS is doing some clever things currently.

Well, because %D makes sure \frak is not defined, and the mc is bound to the euler/concrete macros. > Concernig \cg / calligraphic I found some definitions in "Unknown > Defaults" > font-unk.tex, which don't perform anything real.

This should go into font-ini.tex, just like the OldStyle: \definefont [frak] [Fraktur sa \currentfontscale] \definefont [goth] [Gothic sa \currentfontscale] \definefont [cal] [Caligraphic sa \currentfontscale] \definefontsynonym [Fraktur] [unknown] \definefontsynonym [Gothic] [unknown] \definefontsynonym [Caligraphic] [unknown] And this should go into font-cmr or whatever else font definition file. Simply linking logical names to file names. \definefontsynonym [Fraktur] [eufm10] \definefontsynonym [Gothic] [eufm10] \definefontsynonym [Caligraphic] [cmsy10] And then, you can say: \frak Tobias \goth Burnus \cal CHEMICUS Beware, there is no family support in this solution, which is not that problemantic here. When taco has finished his fonts and symbols project, we will come with a decent solution for the lack of families. (Everything else would be and can be considered a hack).
