= How to use the provided fonts: 3 steps, 5 sec. =__NOTOC__
; #1Using fonts with TeX was once a Jedi fight, before XeTeX and LuaTeX development. FirstNowadays, be aware of the [[ConTeXt distribution's Fonts|21 using fonts provided]]is simple.:* If required, you can [[Mtxrun#fonts| regenerate the font database]] <code>mtxrun --script font --reload --force</code>
; #2. Give a name to the set of = Using fonts you want to use and select a first font:* Use the command {{cmd|definefontfamily}}. Sometimes, the name of the set of font is called the "typescript identifier":* Let's take an example, for a Serif font, for which TeX practice is to refer to them as '''roman''' (=rm):* <texcode>\definefontfamily[MyFontIdentifier][rm][refcode to the serif font]</texcode>
; #3You will find here the preliminary steps before actually playing with the fonts in your input file. Declare it as your default font family for your document and specify the font size:* Use At the command end, with {{cmd|setupbodyfont}}:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[MyFontIdentifier at xxpt]</texcode>one or two commands, you will make your document enable to use any fonts available on your computer.

The actual use of fonts within your document is detailed in '''[[Font Switching]]''':
* how to define font size,
* how to use alternative styles like regular / bold / italic / small caps
* how to switch between serif, sans serif, monospaced, or to another fonts with {{cmd|switchtobodyfont}}
* how to underline, strike...
= Advanced stuff =
== The Manuals ==
== Deep dive into typescripts ==
* [[Typescripts examples]] look at the existing examples to build your own Typescripts.
* [[Featuresets]], and here some of common option for {{cmd|definefontfeature}}
** <code>onum=yes</code> for old style numbers, vs <code>lnum=yes</code> for lining numbers
** <code>kern=yes</code> for kerning
** See [[Ligatures]] (2017). <code>liga=yes</code> for common ligature and <code>dlig=yes</code> for discretionary ligature (like st), <code>calt=yes</code> for contextual alternates.
** for small caps, the font must propose Caps variation like "EBGaramondSC12-Regular.otf" et "AlegreyaSC-Regular.otf"

* [[Protrusion]] (also known as hanging or font handling) is a more subtle typographic effect (2012 need update).
