Font handling in ConTeXt is "“strange" ” for LaTeX users. It's a system of abstraction and aliases, complex and mighty... … But there's help:
* [http://homepage.mac.com/atl/tex/ Adam Lindsay's page] focuses on typography (OpenType, Unicode etc.), esp. on MacOS X
* typescripts for some fonts from the FontSite500 CD on the [[Font Site]] page, by Holger Sch�ner
* typescripts for lazy font combinations on the [[Flexi Face]] page
* some pointers on extending typescripts to accommodate access to "“variants," ” like old-style figures, are on the [[Font Variants]] page
* [[Fonts in XeTeX]] gives some details about the [[XeTeX]]-specific typescripts in <tt>type-xtx</tt>
* Fonts rely on [[Encodings and Regimes]], and it helps to know what happens underneath the hood, from time to time.
* Configuration of fonts for [[Vietnamese]].
* In newer distributions, map files belong in <tt>...…/fonts/map/pdftex/context</tt>!
* Don't forget to look at [[cont-sys.tex]]!
:For me, typescripts only work if I activate <cmd>autoloadmapfilestrue</cmd> and <cmd>resetmapfiles</cmd> in <tt>cont-sys.tex</tt> --[[User:Hraban|Hraban]] 2004-08-23
