| |
| − | | |
| − | 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 to download a zip file with the 4 alternative styles:
| |
| − | :** Regular 400
| |
| − | :** Regular 400 italic
| |
| − | :** Bold 700
| |
| − | :** Bold 700 italic | |
| − | | |
| − | ; #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>
| |
| − | :* the fonts database: <code>mtxrun --script font --reload</code>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; #4. Check if the 4 files are identified by ConTeXt now:
| |
| − | :* <code>mtxrun --script font --list --file -pattern=*noto*</code>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; #5. Define them as a new typescript (ConTeXt vocabulary) in your input file.
| |
| − | :* Use the commands {{cmd|starttypescript}} and {{cmd|definefontsynonym}} to declare
| |
| − | | |
| − | <texcode>
| |
| − | \starttypescript [serif] [notoserif]
| |
| − | \definefontsynonym[NotoSerif-Regular] [file:NotoSerif-Regular]
| |
| − | \definefontsynonym[NotoSerif-Italic] [file:NotoSerif-Italic]
| |
| − | \definefontsynonym[NotoSerif-Bold] [file:NotoSerif-Bold]

| |
| − | \stoptypescript
| |
| − | </texcode>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; #6. Define them as part of your font family, here as a roman
| |
| − | <texcode>
| |
| − | \definefontfamily [MyFontIdentifier] [rm] [notoserif]
| |
| − | </texcode>
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Finally, we shoud have:

| |
| − | \starttypescript [serif] [notoserif]
| |
| − | \definefontsynonym[NotoSerif-Regular] [file:NotoSerif-Regular]

| |
| − | * \starttypescript [serif] [notoserifsc]
