#There is mainly 2 basics fonts you want to setup : '''serif''' and '''sans serif'''. #* TeX practice refer to them as '''roman''' and '''sans'''. #* the command \rm, as Roman, will switch to Serif font#* the command \ss, as Sans Serif, will switch to Sans Serif font# Give a name to the font you want to use for both with [[Command/definefontfamily]] #* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontFamilyName][rm][refcode to the serif font]</texcode>#* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontFamilyName][ss][refcode to the sans serif font]</texcode>== To tidy ==
* Work is also needed to merge content from [[Fonts/Fonts_in_LuaTeX| Fonts in LuaTeX]] in the pages above.
* For older content, refering to mkii, we keep a [[Fonts - Old Content|specific zone in the wiki]].
