Hello everyone,
I am a newbie to ConTeXt. I have no idea how to use the Times Roman font
in ConTeXt. (in Latex, just \usepackage{times})
I found something like this: (http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html)
% Times font
\usetypescript[berry][ec] % or [8r]
\setupbodyfont[pos]
\starttext
hellow, world
\stoptext
but an error occours:
---------------------------------------------
kpathsea: Running mktexmf utmr8t
! I can't find file `utmr8t'.
<*> ...:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input utmr8t
Please type another input file name
! Emergency stop.
<*> ...:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input utmr8t
Transcript written on mfput.log.
mktextfm: `mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input utmr8t' failed.
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.

\relax \fi \ifskipfontchar...
<argument> \getvalue {\@style@ \fontstyle }
\edef \fontstyle {\fontstyle }\if...
...
l.2 \setupbodyfont[pos]
?
----------------------------------------------
I want to know what I can do with it. Thanks!

The following should work with the stable ConTeXt from January:
\usetypescript [adobekb][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[pos]
\usetypescript[times][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[times,12pt]
\starttext
\input knuth
\bigskip
\stoptext
If not, please post the error message together with version information
of your system.

Xue,
I am not a font expert at all, and we are on different platforms.
If I understand correctly, the font mechanism in TeXExec has been
changing, and different ConTeXt versions rely on different versions of
pdfeTeX (not only for font reasons, but also for pdf features).
It should be imperative to use compatible versions of both, even though
I have no clue how to achieve this -- (on the Mac, Gerben's iinstaller
is nicely taking care of this, but I don't know about Windows)
In my recent experience, it was not a good idea to use the latest
(March) ConTeXt beta
without making sure that your remaining TeX installation (including
fonts) is completely
up-to-date. As I don't know how easy it is to move to some other
'release' on Windows,
I don't know how feasible this recommendation is. Maybe somebody on
Windows for whom
times works can give you some information which versions he is using,
and how to get them.
I also wonder why the pdf made at ConTeXtgarden opens in Acrobat with
font substitution -- the fonts should be
universally available, I believe.
Hopefully somebody with more insight will clarify ?
Matthias

Hello,

your ConTeXt is way too old. It doesn't have type-akb included. Either
update your ConTeXt or get type-akb from http://levana.de/context/ .

not really, they try to adapt themselves invisible

normally this is no problem, i run old and new versions alongside; teh biggest
change in the latest pdftex is that the locations of the enc/map files have
changed (not context related, more tds/texmf); context never used the pdftex cfg
file so no problems should be expected there

for the transition to latim modern one indeed needs latin modern fonts (zip on
our website); making this change has to happen anyway; also, when one uses latin
modern as well as context pattern files; one can use more font encodings with
regards to hyphenation

strange, this should not happen with an embedded font

I wonder why. Which fonts are substituted? What is your input file?

Patrick,
I tried the following both on the latest (2005-03-16) complete ConTeXt for
Windows mswincontext.zip and on live.contextgarden.net ...
\usetypescript[times][texnansi]
\setupbodyfont[times,12pt]
\starttext
\showfontstrip
\showbodyfont[times]
Roman \bf bold \it italics
\stoptext
On my system, the times font is completely blank and the log file complains
of missing characters (see my post from yesterday), while opening the
Acrobat file produced from live.contextgarden.net produces the following
message:
"Could not find a font in the Resources dictionary - using Helvetica
instead."
In both cases, the roman font "times" is missing or incomplete to some
degree. Am I using the correct syntax? The times typescript is defined in
the ConTeXt files ...
Regards,
Stefano

Hello Stefano,
on live.contextgarden.net, this works:
\setupencoding[default=ec]
\usetypescript[adobekb][\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript[times][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[times,12pt]
\starttext
\showfontstrip
\showbodyfont[times]
Roman \bf bold \it italics
\stoptext
