added Category "Fonts", "International"
== Russian (Cyrillic) fonts and UTF ==
It is now possible (from ConTeXt version [[Context 2005-.01.26|2005.01-27 .26]] or [[Context 2005.01.31|2005-01-31]]) to type Russian (cyrillic) letters directly in your .tex file using UTF-8 encoding. I have only tested this on TeXLive 2004, but I guess it would work on any distribution as long as you have the cm-super fonts installed (On TeXLive you had to generate the tfm files needed using the <tt>afm2tfm</tt> application (see furhter down on this page for a small python script that enables you to create all tfm files), or by using the fonts in LaTeX). Here is a minimal(?) working file.
<texcode>
Ok, I am not a programmer, so this could probably be done in a cleaner way. However, it works for me.
<texcodepre>
#!/usr/bin/python
import os, string
f.close()
</texcodepre> [[Category:Fonts]][[Category:International]]
