Over the last 14 days I've learned great many things about font handling in ConTeXt (once in a while I even think I understand some of it...), but my fonts STILL don't work. I think this is a MikTeX problem and tomorrow I'll get another computer to play with and can try TexLive, but I would love to get the fonts to work in MikTeX as well. Has anyone succeeded as yet? My OS is WindowsNT and I used my admin rights while doing all the installation work. My editor is WinEdt. My main texmf directory is c:\texmf and my local texmf directory is c:\localtexmf (no separate font directory). Both are in the path. What I did was 1. I used the MikTeX Update Wizard to upgrade to MikTeX 2.2. 2. I downloaded the newest ConTeXt and unzipped it into the appropriate directory. 3. I tried to update the format files (MikTeX Options, General). Got the "increase poolsize" warning at cont-en. Cancelled update, went to miktex.ini and increased the pool size from 500000 to 1000000. Retried format update and made it this time. 4. I generated font map files with the command texfont --encoding=ec --batch type-tmf.dat Some of the map files (mostly original-*) are in C:\texmf\pdftex\config\context (I guess they were there from before?) Most of the map files (among others -urw-*) are in C:\localtexmf\pdftex\config and the equivalent tex files (like ec-urw-times.tex) appeared at root (C:\), probably because I was dumb enough to give the texfont command there. Does it matter where these files go to? 5. I went back to the MikTeX Options and clicked the "Refresh now" button at File Name Database. 6. I opened c:\texmf\tex\context\base\type-map.tex and commented the fonts/encodings I'm not using (8r and texnansi). I don't know if I'm supposed to do this, but it does save me from unnecessary complaints later. After all this I tried the system with \usetypescript[map][all], i.e. I ran texexec on the following minitestfile: ----- %output=pdftex \setupencoding[default=ec] \usetypescript[map][all] \starttext Text. å ä æ ö ø ð þ \stoptext ----- [The odd letters (diacritics etc.) above are the ones I'm most likely to need, that's why this setup. My standard cmr doesn't have any of them. I also found out with my real file that it doesn't have a degree sign either. :-( ] Result: a log full of complaints about pdftex not being able to find the map files that definitely a) exist and b) should be in the path. I've pasted the log to the end of this message... What went wrong? What did I forget? Did I do something wrong? Or just in wrong order? What, why, where is this #¤% problem?
