You can check it out (it might be that it only works with ConTeXt 2007.09.28 and XeTeX 0.997): \definefontfeature [slantedandextended] % cloned from the rest of XeTeX, not really needed [method=node,script=latn,language=dflt,liga=yes,onum=yes,kern=yes, slant=0.25,extend=1.5] \definefontsynonym [myfont] [file:texgyrepagella-regular][features=slantedandextended] \starttext \definedfont[myfont] This is slanted and extended \stoptext This specific font doesn't need that feature, but there might be others :) Mojca ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
