How to change to Palatino for text with Euler for math: [[Palatino with Euler for Math- Old Content]]
''Some hints by Taco from the mailing list on 2005-11-20:''
* <fontname> is usually derived from the font source (afm or ttf),
* <encoding> is a 'controlled' list, (see [[Encodings and Regimes- Old Content]])
* <vendor> and <familyname> are user-supplied (at install time).
* [http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/mmakempy.pdf making outlines] by Pragma
* [http://pragma-ade.com/specials/fonts/fontspecial-p.pdf Here] you can try out several TeX fonts online (PDF interface!)
* Troubleshooting: solving [[TeXfont- Old Content]] problems.* Character [[Protrusion]] (also known as hanging or font handling) is a more subtle typographic effect.* [[Font Handling Internals- Old Content]]* [http://watershade.net/wmcclain/context-help.html Bill McClain's ConTeXt beginners page(Old Content)] has also a lot about fonts
* [[Pseudo Small Caps]] by Vit Zyka
* [[Understanding how fonts work in ConTeXt- Old Content]]* Fonts rely on [[Encodings and Regimes- Old Content]], and it helps to know what happens underneath the hood, from time to time.
* In newer distributions, map files belong in <tt>…/fonts/map/pdftex/context</tt>!
* Don't forget to look at [[contTeX_Gyre_-sys.tex_Old_Content]]!
