Font sizes.

Font sizes.

[Dirar Bougatef]

Hi,

I have 2 questions:

1. When you say something like :

\definebodyfont[10pt][rm][tfe=lbr at 36pt]

Do i have to provide the 36pts font files at first and install them or 
does context adapt a font file with another size to the 36pt size ?

2. I have installed a font which i got with a .pfb and a .afm file.

When i make the following calls:

\pdfmapfile{+texnansi-rubicon-karatmedium.map}
\font\Myfont=texnansi-raw-KAMN
\setupbodyfont[Myfont]

\starttext
This is roman, {\bf bold}, {\it italic}, {\bi bold-italic}, {\tfa 
bigger} and {\tfx smaller}.
\stoptext

Which size is going to be displayed ?

Thanks.

Dirar.

script is needed in math. Big and small provide a complete font change.

Ever wondered about what exact size is some relative "name" like \tfa?
I did some calculations for you, enjoy:

Please anyone explain where we need "script/small/big" sizes.

Font sizes

[AlterEgo Qasars]

Good morning.

I'm sorry I bother again with the same problem, but it is still unsolved. 
I have to typeset a document according to a given design. In the design 
font sizes are specified: 11pt for the basic font, 13pt and 14pt for 
special ones etc. I use postscript fonts (TX fonts here). How could I set 
it? I tried this:

\definefontsynonym [Serif]            [t1xr] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold]        [t1xb] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic]      [t1xi] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted]     [t1xsl] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic]  [t1xbi] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldSlanted] [t1xbsl] [encoding=ec]
\definefontsynonym [SerifCaps]        [t1xsc] [encoding=ec]
%
\definebodyfont [14.4pt,12pt,11pt,10pt,9pt,8pt,7pt,6pt,5pt]
        [rm,mm] [default]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [bfa=SansBold at 13pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [bfb=SansBold at 14pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [bfc=SansBold at 20pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [bfe=SansBold at 75pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [tfxx=Sans at 9pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [bfxx=SansBold at 9pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [tfxxx=Sans at 8pt]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [ss] [bfxxx=SansBold at 8pt]
\setupbodyfont[11pt]

New fonts (\tfxxx, \bfxxx) have right sizes (8pt), but the older ones 
(\tfx etc.) are not redefinied. How could I do it correctly?

Many thanks.

M.K.
