I am looking for a way to amend a typescript for the additional use of cyrillic characters.
I currently use:
\starttypescript [sans] [optima]
\setups[font:fallback:sans]
\definefontsynonym [Sans] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Regular)] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SansBold] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Bold)] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Italic)] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Bold Italic)] [features=default]
\stoptypescript
\definetypeface [optima] [ss] [sans] [optima] [default]
\definetypeface [optima] [rm] [serif] [optima] [default]
\definetypeface [optima] [tt] [mono] [modern] [default]
\definetypeface [optima] [mm] [math] [pagella] [default]
\setupbodyfont [optima]
But Optima doesn’t have cyrillic characters. So, either I have te use another typescript. I tried creating a Helvetica (as Helvetica.ttc on macOS seems to have cyrillic characters) but did not succeed.
I also tried
\language[ru]
without any \setupbodyfont hoping it would also fix the font issue but keep getting
fonts > checking > char –® (U+00428) in font 'LMRoman10-Regular' with id 8: missing
I read the languages-mkiv document but it did not say what I had to do about fonts.
What do I have to do to get both English and Russian in my document in terms of fonts?
