Hello,
How do I setup the font used by the SI-Unit abbreviations.
I use something like the following:
\usemodule[units]
\setupbodyfont[pos,sansserif]
\starttext
The wavelength of the pulsed Nd:YAG laser is 1.064 \Micro\Meter.
\stoptext
The bodytext is in Helvetica, but the units are in times. How can I
setup ConTeXt to use the sans-serif font for the units as well?
Regards,
Frank

Hello, Frank.
I was also really confused by this for a while. The command to make the
units in the body (or local) font is:
\textdimensionstrue
Without it, I believe units are in the Math font.
hope that helps,
adam
