Hello,
I want to use truly huge (40pt) fonts for chapter numbers.
In my latex code, I used
\newfont{\chapterNumber}{pplr9d scaled 7000}
From the context manual, I thought that
\definebodyfont [11pt] [rm] [ tfH=cmr12 scaled 7000]
should do it. Though the above code doesn't throw any errors,
it doesn't do anything. What am I doing wrong?
*MWE*
\definebodyfont [11pt] [rm] [ tfH=cmr12 scaled 7000]
\starttext
{\tfH 1}
\stoptext
Devendra

\definebodyfont
[default]
[tfH=cmr12 scaled 7000]
works for me. Or you can use:
\definefont
[TitleFont]
[Serif at 40pt]
\starttext
\TitleFont FooBar
\stoptext

I just updated by ConTeXt (ver: 2013.02.05 22:32 MKIV) and tried again.
*\definefont* works but
\definebodyfont
[default]
[tfH= cmr12 scaled 7000]
still does not work and also wipes out definitions for \tfa \tfx etc.
So
{\tfa 1}{\tf 1}{\tfx 1}
will just yield
111
Thank you,
Devendra
My MWE is:
\definebodyfont
[default]
[tfH=cmr12 scaled 7000]
\definefont
[TitleFont]
[Serif at 40pt]
\starttext
{\tfH 1}{\tf 1}{\tfx 1}\\
{\TitleFont 1. FooBar}
\stoptext
