Subject: Converting normal font into bold
Date: Sun, 24 Nov 2013 14:01:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5291F89B.9050805@mmnetz.de> (raw)

Hello together,

I have an arabic font, which is quite perfect, but only a little bit too 
thin, so that it seems to "vanish" into the white of the paper. 
Unfortunately this font does not come with an bold-variant.

Now I tried to manipulate it with CorelDraw, just converted into curves 
and added an contour (verys small 0.13pt, while font was 11pt) - and it 
worked! This "aritificial bold-font" works very well, better then I 
hoped, no problems - although it is no hand-tundes bold, but only 
countour-adding.

Now the question: I obviously cant set the entire book (more than 600 
pages) with Corel-Draw, and want too use ConText, of course. So is there 
a way to produce this boldness out of this too thin font within ConText, 
too?

Thank your very much.
Best regards,
Huseyin
