Dear Hans and gang,
Has TeX-Gyre been released as part of MKIV yet? I was in the processing of
updating my mswincontext distribution of 2007.08.07 and I noticed that
cont-tmf does not contain the TeX-Gyre fonts.
The reason I don't want to install the fonts from the official TeX-Gyre
site is because, before the release of MKIV, I installed them (with the
ConTeXt support files on that site of course) and they did not all work
:-( So I'd prefer to install them from a single ConTeXt package/zip so
that we could all have easier installation (just unzip) as well as a
common benchmark, especially if things go wrong ;-)
Best wishes
Idris

ConTeXt contains LuaTeX (type-otf, loaded by default) and pdfTeX (type-gyr)
typescripts for the TeX-Gyre Fonts.

What is your problem to download the fonts and unzip them in your TeX directory,
all other things are included in ConTeXt.
You can also wait for new minimals, Hans said he will ship the TeX-Gyre Fonts
because you need them for palatino, times ... with LuaTeX.
Wolfgang

hm, gyre should be in the minimals; anyhow, i will build new ones when i
do a major update (i.e. when attribute based color moves into the
distribution)

Yes, this is so...

Because
a) I'm doing a lot of really sensitive stuff with luatex (OrientalTeX
Project)
b) I want to keep my MKIV installation as clean as possible
c) If I have future luatex installation problems I don't want to have to
think about where this or that package came from that caused this or that
problem. If TeX-Gyre comes fully in a ConTeXt packege I'll have a clean
benchmark.
These days I am just too busy for a lot of unnecessary package debugging
etc. if I can avoid it.

That's exactly what I was asking about, I thought it may have ben done
already ;-)

I checked (justtex.zip), the tex-gyre fonts are still not there, only
latin modern otf's...

Ok, I'll wait, I hope it's not too far off ;-)
