Dear all.

At page 50-52 of  the manual of metapost, “Mpman”, it is explained to get a glyph of font using the command ‘glyph'.
glyph ⟨numeric expression⟩ of ⟨string expression⟩ 

glyph ⟨string expression⟩ of ⟨string expression⟩ . 

Is it possible to do the similar thing in metafun?

I couldn’t make it happen using the following code.

\startbuffer[outline]
%fontmapfile "=lm-ec.map";
  picture q;
  path p;
  interim ahlength := 12bp;
  interim ahangle := 25;
  q := glyph 100 of "ArialMT"; %nfont defaultfont  scaled defaultscale;
 draw q;
\stopbuffer

\starttext
\processMPbuffer[outline]
\stoptext

if the first line “fontmapfile …” is alive, then fatal error occurred.
Without it, it is running without error, but no output at all.

I copied the sample code in mpman below.

Thank you for reading.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

fontmapfile “=lm-ec.map”;

  picture q;
  path p;
  interim ahlength := 12bp;
  interim ahangle := 25;
  q := glyph "Dcaron" of "ec-lmr10" scaled .2;
  for item within q:
    p := pathpart item;
    drawarrow p withcolor (.6,.9,.6)
        withpen pencircle scaled 1.5;
    for j=0 upto length p:
      pickup pencircle scaled .7;
      draw (point j of p -- precontrol j of p)
          dashed evenly withcolor blue;
      draw (point j of p -- postcontrol j of p)
          dashed evenly withcolor blue;
      pickup pencircle scaled 3;
      draw precontrol j of p withcolor red;
      draw postcontrol j of p withcolor red;
      pickup pencircle scaled 2;
      draw point j of p withcolor black;
    endfor
  endfor
