Before streaming out my woes, I wonder if anyone recognises my symptoms as being due to a common mistake: My output has the correct fonts, but all the character spacing has gone caput. Basically every character is set in a tight box, spaces don't show, and vertical space between lines and paragraphs doesn't show either. I've followed the steps set out in a previous message on this list about installing a new font (http://ml-archives.mini.pw.edu.pl/ntg-context/msg01903.html). I picked up an already generated set of tfm and vf from the web. (Do I need vf for ConTeXt?) The font is Bitstream Souvenir (Light and Demi). This feels to me like a TFM problem, and I'm desperately fiddling, but if anyone recognises this as a particular type of obvious boo-boo I'd be really grateful for a pointer. Thanks, Duncan
