= How to use one of the provided fonts: 4 steps, 10 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:* Use At the command end, with {{cmd|setupbodyfont}}:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[MyFontIdentifier]</texcode>one or two commands, you will make your document enable to use any fonts available on your computer.
; #4. Specify the font size
:* <texcode>\setupbodyfont[xxpt]</texcode>

Let's take a example, we want to use [https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Noto+Serif Noto Serif].
; #1. Download :*The google website enable us Finally, for older content, refering to download mkii, we keep a zip file with [[Fonts - Old Content|specific zone in the 4 alternative styles::** Regular 400:** Regular 400 italic:** Bold 700:** Bold 700 italicwiki]]. Work is also need to merge content of [[Fonts_in_LuaTeX]] here.
; #2. Store them is a dedicated folder
:* create a "Noto-serif" in the ConTeXt distribution <code>tex/texmf-fonts</code>.
:* unzip and store the .ttf file in <code>tex/texmf-fonts/Noto-serif/</code>.
; #3. Regenerate ConTeXt databases:* the file database: <code>mtxrun --generate</code>{{cmd|definefontfamily}}:* the fonts database: <code>mtxrun --script font --reload</code>{{cmd|definedfont}}
; #4. Find how are called the 4 styles for ConTeXt:
:* <code>mtxrun --script font --list --file -pattern=*noto*</code>
