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...
