→Using cyrillic with ConTeXt MkIV: gyre lacks cyrillic glyphs; added simple example with simplefonts (that WORKS)
== Using cyrillic with ConTeXt MkIV ==
'''''Note:''''' Since january 2009 CONTeXT lacks cyrillic Gyre glyphs.
Probably, the most simple way to get ''some'' cyrillic text in your context is to use Computern Modern Cyrillic fonts (in Debian you need texlive-lang-cyrillic and texlive-fonts-extra packages) and ''simplefont'' module:
<textcode>
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[cmromancyrillic]
\starttext
Пр{\it ив}ет, \bf мир!
\stoptext
</textcode>
This example restricts you to using luatex engine, though, and also compiles a few times longer than any other example here.
'''''Note:''''' ''The examples in this section were tested on recent (2008-10) ConTeXt minimals. If something does not work as written feel free to change them.''
