Yes, they came with all sorts of tfm-files and even tft-files (huh?), and also pfa-files (that I've long since converted to pfb-files).= =20 I'm grateful for all the responses that I've been getting. I hope that I don't offend people by saying that I don't like the steep learning curve required to get the LB fonts ready for use in ConTeXt documents; especially not since the newly acquired knowledge becomes useless to me the moment it has been succesfully applied... That would be the third tim= e since doing my dissertation in the original TeX, further work in LaTeX, and now possibly in ConTeXt. =20 Hans, you said that you posted an updated version of cont-fnt.zip, but al= l I could find was the 1-12-2005 version without texnansi fmt-files (only the ec ones). Anyway, I have enough information now to apply the LB fonts if I choose to do so. Again, many thanks for the response. Henk Koster --=20 H.A.J.
