Re: Still don't understand how to switch fonts in the new context / ec versus 8r

[Hans Hagen <pragma@wxs.nl>]

Hi,

I think that the problem is as follows:

-- you want toi use times
-- you want to use the files already on the system
-- so you load the berry typescript
-- context does then assume ec encoding
-- since we deal with times, pdftex assumes embedding
-- but the ec name (ending with 8t) is not in the psfonts file
-- about which pdftex does not care since it is resident

now, can you see what happens when instead you use 8r encoding?

   \usetypescript [berry] [8r]

instead of [berry] [ec] (if that works ok, i'll change it in the typescript)

those names have entries in the psfonts.map file.

Alternatively, you can just generate the ec-.... names (using texfont, see 
texfont.dat) and forget about the berry mapping.

Here I now use the ec-prefixed ones and always embed the files (urw) since 
one cannot longer trust the embedded adobe 15.

Btw, for me the order of useable fonts is now 8r / texnansi / ec [from high 
to low]; also, the texnansi on ctan/tex live 6 is indeed faulty.
