Re: Using Postscript Type 1 fonts in ConTeXt/XeTeX?

Roland,

I forgot two things so I should better mention some before you ask.

First: welcome to the ConTeXt community.
Second: you need a *recent enough* ConTeXt (anything between october
07-january 08), but if you take the latest one, then you also need the
future version of LM :) And you need a recent version of XeTeX &
xdvipdfmx.

If you're using TeX Live's version, then:

a) update XeTeX binaries

compile it from sources or take it from here (you can download it
manually from http or using rsync) and replace the old binaries with
these ones:

http://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/bin/xetex/osx-intel/bin/
   or
rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/bin/xetex/osx-intel/bin/
path-to-bins

b) update ConTeXt

many other ways to do it as well (you can take a zip from pragma)

For example:
rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/2008.01.16/
path-to-texmf-tree-with-context
you may replace 2008.01.16 with any version that you find here:
http://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/context/

2008.01.16 requres new LM fonts already, older versions do not.

c) update LM if you take too recent ConTeXt (otherwise, leave the
fonts alone) - these fonts are still a pre-release version, so you
should better take an older version of ConTeXt

rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/fonts/new/fonts/opentype/public/lm/
path-to-LM
