Updating Miktex and Context beta

Updating Miktex and Context beta

[David Arnold]

Hans et al,

Well, I completely unloaded Miktex 2.0 and installed Miktex 2.1 (Large),
which installs an older version of Context (ver 2001.2.27). The following
compiled nicely, producing the Lucida font in the pdf output (checked in
Acrobat).

\setupbodyfont[lbr]

\starttext

Hello, world!

\stoptext

Next, I unzipped the latest beta and rebuilt cont-en.efmt and placed it in
place of the existing cont-en.efmt. The file above no longer compiles,
giving this error when attempting to compile:

(F:\Miktex\tex\context\base\type-spe.tex)
(F:\Miktex\tex\context\base\type-exa.tex))makemf --verbose LucidaBright
cannot find LucidaBright source file.

?

So, something is up with this beta that conflicts severely with a working
installation of Miktex 2.1.

I have no idea how to proceed. Anyone?

right, but did you add the line

\setupencoding[default=texnansi]

in your cont-sys.tex file?

The LucidaBright name needs to be mapped onto a real file name, which can 
be any encoding.
