Dear fellow conspirators,
more about my attempts to get times new roman working:
I could find neither context.cnf nor type-mws.tex in the distribution. Anyway,
here is my attempt at a typescript file: note that arial provides the
companion sans serif: any comments will be appreciated.
Question: What is "\typescriptthree"?
I'm assuming there is also a [font:fallback:serif] option.
Best
Idris

I think it is the third parameter that is supplied to a typescript. In
your case its value is always "texnansi" because your typescript does
not allow several values for the third parameter.

Dear consortium,
I'm having trouble preparing times new roman for ConTeXt. I'm trying to follow
the instructions in mag-0009.pdf, but TeXfont does not want to behave:-(
===========================================================
\system_fonts>texfont --vendor=microsoft --collection=times
--encoding=texnansi --pattern=times*.afm
TeXFont 1.5 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 2000-2001 (STILL BETA)
processing aborted : unknown option --pattern=times*.afm
===========================================================
I tried things manually without the --pattern option and got a
texnansi-microsoft-times.tex
file, from which I manually constructed a
texnansi-microsoft-times.map
file with four lines:
===================================================
texnansi-raw-times 4 < times.pfb texnansi.enc
texnansi-raw-timesbd 4 < timesbd.pfb texnansi.enc
texnansi-raw-timesbi 4 < timesbi.pfb texnansi.enc
texnansi-raw-timesi 4 < timesi.pfb texnansi.enc
===================================================
I then tried manually constructing the tfm files with afm2tfm but alas...
\system_fonts>afm2tfm times[bd|bi|i]
! no Adobe characters
% LIGKERN ff l =: ffl ;
^
and empty tfm files
Not sure where to go from here...
I'm also going to need Arial from WINNT\Fonts as well...
