Hello All,
I'm again hit by the disapperance of the Adoboe default fonts. When I
create a PDF document, I get the Nimbus (urw) fonts, instead of the
Adobe.
Sample doc:
=========================
\setupbodyfont
[pos,ss,11pt]
\starttext
\subject{Test}
Of correct font.
\stoptext
=========================

I'm using the latest context. Perhaps some relevant quotes from my

\setupencoding[\s!default=8r] % or "ec", if you prefer
\usetypescript[berry][\defaultencoding]

The final remapping is done in 8r-base.map, as far as I can see
(in dvi mode the font 'phvr8t' is used).
If you actually have the Adobe binary font files, I suggest copying
Hans' 8r-base to a different directory such that it will be found
before the distributed one, and change the 'u' pfb names to 'p' pfb
names in the copy.
If you do _not_ have the Adobe binary fonts, then I am afraid you
have to learn to live with the URW versions. These days, a
non-embedded Helvetica seems to imply the use of Adobe Sans MM,
and I've had a production PDF rejected by a printing house because
of that.

updmap is irrelevant, ConTeXt comes with its own map files.

I would second what Taco says: not embedding is just asking for trouble
from third parties. However, if you're independent or otherwise control
everybody's viewer, try this:
\usetypescript[adobekb][8r]
\loadmapfile[8r-base-ndl]
\usetypescript[postscript][8r] % 'pos' is deprecated
\setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,11pt]
\starttext
\showbodyfont
\subject{Test}
Of correct font.
\stoptext
> updmap is irrelevant, ConTeXt comes with its own map files.
And here's one that ConTeXt can use (after Berend gives a thorough test
and some feedback).
[Incidentally, there is one NimbusRoman that gets embedded: that's the
slanted version, which seems unavoidable.]

That is to say, could you please give a more detailed report?
It works here: The attached new mapfile (in my original post) lived in a
ConTeXt-accessible path (in this case, just the testfile's directory),
and contained entries directly cut-and-paste from my pdftex_ndl14.map.
Some commentary on the testfile:
%D Berry doesn't work here because it's not available with 8r:
\usetypescript[adobekb][8r]
%D The adobekb typescript loads 8r-base, so we have to
%D overwrite the font embedding entries by loading this after:
\loadmapfile[8r-base-ndl]
%D The current way of triggering the 'pos' combination:
\usetypescript[postscript][8r] % 'pos' is deprecated
\setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,11pt]
\starttext
%D Since this triggers the "slanted" variant, there will be *one*
%D NimbusRoman font embedded. The rest is left up to the viewer:
\showbodyfont
\subject{Test}
Of correct font.
\stoptext

Just that it still includes the Nimbus font.

Read the previous email messages. Try a test document without the
\showbodyfont command.

Ah, you included a map file, had overlooked that with my first quick

time, but you already did the work. Sorry I missed that, and that

Oh good!
I was starting to doubt some of my core competencies.
Now, can you take it out for an extended spin/test? I'd like to be able
to package it up in a way that (potentially) allows others to use it.
Or: Hans, Taco: is this feature best left as a dangerous curve, best
left to specific users who need it?

no problem to wrap it up, as long as you warn users of the implications
