Yesterday I converted a 60 page booklet from LaTeX to ConTeXt where is now successfully compiles (but without lots of formatting that I will need to figure out how to apply). My problem has to do with using a font other than the default (CM I guess). Commands such as the following have no apparent effect: \setupbodyfont[palatino] \setupbodyfont[lbr] Do I need to select some interface to the fonts like I do in LaTeX when I say \usepackage{lucidabr} or do I need to do some something with TeXfont even though these fonts are already available to MiKTeX for my use with LaTeX? I tried to follow the instructions at http://wiki.contextgarden.net for making sure MiKTeX knows about ConTeXt. [My MiKTeX came with the ProTeXt distribution, has been updated to the latest MiKTeX I believe, and MiKTeX's formats have been updated and its file name database refreshed.] I have a reasonably large pile of documentation I have printed out from www.pragma-ade.com. Pointers to what may be relevant to this font problem will be appreciated. Best regards, Dave -- * see http://www.walden-family.com/breakthrough * home address: 12 Linden Rd., E.
