another question on simplefonts

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Hi Wolfgang,

I have the following code:

\definefontfeature[fakeslanted][slant=.25]
\definefontfamily[mainface][serif][TeX Gyre Pagella][slantedfont={*
Regular},sl=features:fakeslanted]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
This is {\em slanted}.
\stoptext

But I don’t know how to define "slantedfont={* Regular}" with the new
syntax. "sl=style:tf" or "sl=style:regular" don’t work (the italic font
is the slanted one).

Which is the right way to do it in the new version of simplefonts?

BTW, I think I should update the simplefonts article in the wiki to add
the new syntax.

After reading the font-sel.mkvi file, I have two questions:

Which are the option keys that come before a colon? I mean, taking
tf=style:bf as a sample, they would be style, file, features? Which ones
am I missing?

How about a new range preset for Hebrew?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

\definefontfeature[fakeslanted][slant=.25]

\definefontfamily[mainface][serif][TeX Gyre Pagella][sl={style:regular,features:{default,fakeslanted}}]

\setupbodyfont[mainface]

\starttext
This is {\em slanted}.
\stoptext

The choose a certain font/style for a alternative you can use:

- name
- file
- style
- spec

Local features can be applied with:

- features

Patches etc. from a feature will can be applied with:

- goodies

What is needed for this preset?

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.

It works fine.

I’m afraid all information I have on this topic comes from the list.
Typesetting Hebrew is only a request from another ConTeXt newbie, who
asked me.

range={hebrew,alphabeticpresentationforms} seems to be the range.

Many thanks again for your help,
