Mathdesign GD with simplefonts

Mathdesign GD with simplefonts

[Magnus J]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 864 bytes --]

Hello list,

Long term (silent) on-and-off user with two issues that require some
support:

1. How can I use the Mathdesign GD math font in ConTeXt? I use simplefonts
to load Adobe Garamond Pro, but mathdesigngd (name as reported by mtxrun
fonts script) is somehow not found. At this time I fallback to ugly
solutions with \text in math mode. And yes, I know about
type-imp-mathdesign.mkiv, but obviously I'm not qualified enough to get it
right.

Minimal (not) working example:

  \usemodule[simplefonts]

  \setmainfont[Adobe Garamond Pro]
  \setmathfont[mathdesigngd]

  \starttext
    I want \m{x^2+y^2=z^2} in my text, and $\alpha\beta\gamma$ too.
  \stoptext

2. I would like to use the \followtokens macro from within metapost. How
can this be achieved? Specifically, I trying to draw a rainbow-like figure
with text "between" the colors.

Regards,

Magnus

I am not sure what you mean by a rainbow-like figure. However, for rainbow-like colors, I use the following MP code, based on the standard resistance color code scheme. The function rainbow(f) returns a rainbow spectrum color based on the fraction f running from 0 to 1.

% standard resistance color code: rainbow sequence
color resistance_color[] ;                      string resistance_name[] ;
resistance_color0 = (0,0,0) ;                   resistance_name0 = "black" ;
resistance_color1 = (165/255,42/255,42/255) ;   resistance_name1 = "brown" ;
resistance_color2 = (1,0,0) ;                   resistance_name2 = "red" ;
resistance_color3 = (1,165/255,0) ;             resistance_name3 = "orange" ;
resistance_color4 = (1,1,0) ;                   resistance_name4 = "yellow" ;
resistance_color5 = (0,1,0) ;                   resistance_name5 = "green" ;
resistance_color6 = (0,0,1) ;                   resistance_name6 = "blue" ;
resistance_color7 = (148/255,0,211/255) ;       resistance_name7 = "darkviolet" ;
resistance_color8 = (190/255,190/255,190/255) ; resistance_name8 = "gray" ;
resistance_color9 = (1,1,1) ;                   resistance_name9 = "white" ;

def rainbow(expr f) =
    hide(numeric n_ ; n_ = (abs(5f) mod 5) + 2 ;)
    (n_-floor(n_))[resistance_color[floor n_],resistance_color[ceiling n_]]
enddef ;

Thanks, nice scale. How about the arcs and the text between them?

Regards,

Magnus

The Mathdesign fonts aren’t part of the normal installation and you have to add “--fonts=mathdesign” or “--fonts=all” when you call first-setup.sh|bat.

I have the fonts and they are reported as mathdesigngd by the mtxrun fonts
script -- sorry if this was unclear. How do I proceed from here?

This should work (can’t test it myself):

\usetypescriptfile[mathdesign]

\usemodule[simplefonts]

\setmainfont[Adobe Garamond Pro]
\setmathfont[mathdesigngm]

\starttext
I want \m{x^2+y^2=z^2} in my text, and $\alpha\beta\gamma$ too.
\stoptext

1. It’s possible the math design fonts uses different file name than the ones context expects and this is the cause for the error message.

2. Math for Adobe Garamond isn’t supported yet by context.

I can take a look why math design fails and fix but not today because it takes a while to check all files.
