Fonts in footer and bottom text

Fonts in footer and bottom text

Hi,

I wonder if there is sombody else who experiences the following strange
behaviour of Context.

I use currently the following version:

pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-pre-1.0-unofficial-20010704-2.1 (Web2c 7.3.3.1)
ConTeXt  ver: 2001.12.10

I need to typeset footers and bottomtexts. Without explicitely switching to
the currently used bodyfont with \setupfooter and \setupbottom, Context
typesets the footers and bottomtexts either in CMR or CMSS, depending on the
chosen bodyfont (serif or sans).

Please see also the attached test.tex file

Kind regards Willi

ah, you made me nervous for a while -)

you should use \setupbodyfont instead of \switchtobodyfont

the second one does not affect the main body font (which is used for the 
surrounding stuff); so, you sample demonstrates that one can mix fonts at 
will -)

as soon as a page is reassembles, context switched back to the main body 
font (in your case still cmr)

I noticed this problem as well, but haven't had time to investigate:

pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20010806-2.1 (Web2C 7.3.3.1)
ConTeXt  ver: 2001.9.14
