I installed pxfonts and the command now works great and I do get the Palatino output. I am very new to Context and this last week was mainly a kind of trial to see how I like it. So far I love what I see. Also, I think the fact that there are so many helpful people here in this forum has convinced me that if I get stuck with something, which I will, there are experts whom I could ask for help. Hence, I have decided to use it for most of my documents. Things are very busy now, and hence for the next month or so I plan to continue using the version that comes with TeXlive, but after that I will try to update and get the latest stable version. I hope that in future Context makes more fonts available. For now it seems I will be using Palatino, which is good too. Thanks again. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
