Now the same can be expressed with % put font name for an installed font here \definefontsynonym[Eco-Roman][name:Eco101Roman][features=default] or % put filename here if kpathsea can find the file in [texmf]/fonts/opentype/[something] \definefontsynonym[Eco-Roman][file:Eco101Roman][features=default] features=default implies "mapping=tlig" (which replaces "mapping=tex-text") and handles endash, emdash and apostrophe (ligatures like `? -> reversed question mark, ,, -> quotation mark, ... from tex-text are not present since we considered them unnecessary) > > 23 \definefontsynonym [Eco-Italic] > > ['Eco102Italic:mapping=tex-text'][encoding=uc] > > 24 \definefontsynonym [Eco-Bold] > > ['Eco301Bold:mapping=tex-text'][encoding=uc] > > 25 \stoptypescript Same for all of them. > > 26 \usetypescript[eco] > > 27 \definetypeface[myfont][rm][Xserif][Eco-Roman] > > 28 %% produces > > 29 %% ./hello.tex:35: Font > > \*myfont12ptrmtfrm*:=Eco-Roman:mapping=tex-text at 12.0pt > > 30 %% not loadable: Metric (TFM) file or installed font not found. > > 31 %% The same comment as above: Xserif won't work for a font which is not designed properly. > > 33 > > 34 \starttext > > 35 \switchtobodyfont[myfont,18pt] > > 36 \section{Testing font} > > 37 This is plain text \bf{This is bold text} \it{This is bold italic text} > > 38 > > 39 \stoptext > > Try the following setup, please the field for the BoldItalic font by yourself > because you forgot to tell the name for the style. > > \starttypescript[serif][eco] > \definefontsynonym[Serif] [Eco-Regular] > \definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [Eco-Bold] > \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [Eco-Italic] > \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][Eco-BoldItalic] > \stoptypescript > > \starttypescript[serif][eco] > \definefontsynonym[Eco-Regular] [Eco101Roman] > \definefontsynonym[Eco-Bold] [Eco301Bold] > \definefontsynonym[Eco-Italic] [Eco102Italic] > \definefontsynonym[Eco-BoldItalic][...] Right, but use the syntax described above.
