Subject: Font/UTF-8 input question
Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2004 14:26:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <408E518C.3000806@physik.fu-berlin.de> (raw)
Hello,
I'd like to use a Unicode font such as Linux Libertine [1]. Besides
things which should happen "automatically" like ligatures, I want to
enter all characters directly in the UTF-8 file (including those wierd
characters). I remember that there is some UTF-8 support in ConTeXt, but
I don't remember the details. Is it possible to simply enter a character
such as U+FB02 or do I have first to adapt both the input encoding and
the font encoding files?

I think this is (at least for some documents) a rather nice font. It
contains ~412 characters, including those required by MES-1 (Multilinual
European Subset
<http://www.evertype.com/standards/iso10646/pdf/cwa13873.pdf> No. 1 [2])
and is available in normal and italic (unfortunally no bold or small
caps, yet).
Note that this font still requires some polishing, but the nice thing is
that the author reacts rather fast to feature requests (though I
probably redeemed all my free vouchers for a few IPA characters ;).
