The funny part is that I get two warnings (both of them are my faut since I don't have those files): pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file ec-urw-times.map): cannot open font map file fonts : using map file: ec-urw-helvetica pdfTeX warning: pdftex (file ec-urw-helvetica.map): cannot open font map file fonts : using map file: original-youngryu-tx and the output still looks fine (I get at least fi ligature, I'm not sure about the others.). It looks like a font problem to me, but not something that the user could misconfigure. (Old or wrong font files perhaps? I really have no clue.) The garden doesn't use the standalone distribution (but a fraction of TeX Live). Mojca I will try to investigate, but I don't promise anything. A quick workaround would be to use TeX Gyre instead. ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
