Does this mean I can use Arial out of the box? If so, how? I've tried putting \setupbodyfont[arial,10pt] in my environment file, but it does nothing. I've tried various other things as well, copied but only half understood, from the other documents, but none of them work either! I could follow the guide on installing a new font, but if it's already available then I'd rather not! 2) How do I find out what fonts are available "out of the box" and how do I invoke them? Thanks, Richard. P.S. I'm using mkii -- one day I'll get around to setting up mkiv, but not today! Converteam UK Ltd. Registration Number: 5571739 and Converteam Ltd.
